Brobocops shouldn't have stun weapons at all imo (imagine an ultrafast borg chasing after you, being able to stun you and bolt you in effortlessly).
For artsci, borgs could just use the available machinery, right? I don't think I'm the only person who doesn't like the idea of walking into sci only to see that cyborgs that are better in nearly every way are taking over the positions of scientists.
The gene scanner is one of the least-used pieces of medical equipment and only provides a small convenience over leading someone into the genetek scanner or just giving them mutadone. If mediborgs have anything that would make human doctors "obsolete" it's absolutely not the gene analyzer.
It is my opinion that borgs are supposed to be more efficient than humans in each of their roles. That is part of the whole tradeoff where you don't get hands and are bound by laws, as well as part of what makes the law rack worth protecting at all. And in my observation, half of the modules already have things that stand apart in versatility and efficiency from their human counterparts. The science module is simply not one of them.
