I don't see the point of this. This doesn't seem to balance the blob so much as make it arbitrarily easier. Not to mention that this would only further incentivize the crew to wreck the station with explosives and fires and the like.
Now, an adaptive resistance upgrade might be cool-Hitting the blob repeatedly with lasers makes it more resistant to lasers, so you have to switch to flamethrowers, until it adapts to that, forcing you back to lasers, etc. Adaptation would take time, encouraging crew-members to rush the blob. It'd be fairly expensive, naturally. At least 5 biopoints.
