Bots scout land fast, vehicles scout surface meh speed. Good idea? Mainly for Galactic Annihilation balance because you'll never find an underwater commander if you don't have air or naval.
vehicle scouts are already much better at scouting than bots are. Scouting with bots is slower, more expensive, gives less vision... I'm not sure why you think "bots scout land fast", when it's clearly the other way around. If anything, dox should be amphibious IMO. Because as it stands, there's barely any advantage to them versus vehicles.
Then you're suggesting more than just "make vehicle scouts amphibious". It is not at all clear what your suggestion is from the OP. I'm also pretty sure this should be a discussion for the balance subforum and not general discussion.
