While I do believe that Chemistry has a number of balance issues, I don't see how your comment Lady Birb really brings anything useful to the discussion. You've admitted yourself to being overly hostile in regards to discussions on the state of pathology so I don't really get why you need to act in the same manner here.
As for the actual discussion, like I said I do think that the amount of effort it takes to commit to things in chemistry for the results you get is ridiculous, on both sides.
The fact that it's so easy to make a hole in the floor and depressurise an entire area with some many chem by just adding it to areosol powder is completely unfair. You shouldn't be able to make a mix in less than 10 seconds for a result that requires over 15 minutes + to patch up.
I also find acid to be problematic and non-sensical. The ability to instantly melt any item is over the top. I think the best way to solve that would be for acid to require a specific amount before it could start melting something. After it latches on, it would take some time for it to melt through the hole item, with a higher concentration resulting in a faster melting time.
On the other hand and from what I remember when I last looked at the secret chem leaks, the amount of effort to make some of the non-lethal, non-benefitial gimmick secret is way too much to even bother with. I don't play alot of chemistry so maybe im wrong with that one.
