While the 2-slot missions and extra troop types do reduce the usefulness somewhat, it's still a marked advantage when it comes to availability. Having three Valks instead of two means I don't need to manage them as closely, and I can afford to send out more or longer missions with a Valk in tow, without worrying about getting them back in time.
If you're a person who only logs in once a day to do the bare minimum amount of missions, then no, it really doesn't matter... but then very few of your other choices do either. If you're a person who, like me, does damn near every mission every day at or as close to 200% as possible, then it's a much more impactful advantage.
