Read the OP, he knows that. However being twice as hard to scan in your battlship means it is still easy to scan you.

So what? ECCM should make you immune to probing?
It's a damn battleship. It's good enough that a single module can make it significantly harder to find you. It will cost the scanner precious time that you can use to notice him/his probes on scan and GTFO.
Hell, you could already probably make yourself nigh-immune to scanning with 3 ECCMs or so.
No it should be a usefull effect. Who exactly can afford to fit 3 ECCMs on a mission ship? 1 ECCM allready will heavily gimp any mission setup.
And no one will fit ECCM on pvp ships to be harder to scan down.
One ECCM makes your setup allready suck, and you are still very easy to probe out. Then it should at least be hard to probe you down.

With a cloak they are even harder to scan down.
The only ships who have to be long at one place in a safespot/mission location are pve ships. Pvp ships only when they are semi-afk, and then a cloak is better anyway, and if a fleet is hiding somewhere in a safespot then it wont matter if half of them has eccm or not, there will always be ships without.
And they can just make an extra modifier which make you harder to scan when you got eccm fitted, besides the increase in sensor strength. It doesnt have to effect ecm at all.

No, they fit it to be less susceptible to ecm. And of top of that their hacs/recons/t3 cruisers shall be provided with near immunity to probes? No thanks. If you think pvp probing needs a nerf you definitely don't do enough of it.
Solo ships usually dont use eccm (sure some do, but by far most dont), and if you are probing for a fleet then it is easy enough anyway.
