[Bug] Carbon Fiber Armor (Tier 3) is LESS protective than Fur Armor (Tier 2)
Carbon Fiber (CF) armor is significantly harder to make than Fur armor, and yet Fur armor seems superior in almost every way except it the CF armor is a bit lighter, gives a bit more carry weight as a set, and whole 1% more exposure resistance. Meanwhile Fur armor actually gives better armor (Fur is +14 vs +12 on CF for chest), has equal heat resist and cold resist, and if you have the whole set has more cold resist as a bonus.
Given that the Carbon Fiber armor is a higher tier, requires Aluminum to make, as well as multiple steps to refine the materials, I feel this armor should provide SIGNIFICANTLY more armor than the fur armor. As is the CF armor is mostly a waste of time, materials, and tech points.

firesecond that at least the chest piece of carbon armor should provide a bit more physical protection as the fur version. All other pieces of carbon armor provide at least 1 point more physical protection allready.
