UU have to fit a different role in the army, yes some overlap partially the role of a regular unit but not entirely, the example you give the Hussar and the Magyar Hussar, you must understand that Magyar huzsar doesnt have bonus against monks or bonus resistance to conversion like a normal hussar, also Magyar huzsar is more expensive and have better overall stats including a bonus against siege. Hussars in the other hand have more LOS, attack bonus vs skirmishers and monk along with better resistance to conversion but lower overall stats and cost so not those units play a different role in the battlefield but quite simmilar in general. in Franks case they give them the Throwing axeman not because the campaign  but because Frankish armies were equipped with that weapon ( the francisca)  also ¿ what kind of buff will you give to a gendarme to differentiate that unit from the paladin?
