>yes, perfectly logical if AC was a feature of armor being tougher to punch through and not also ability to avoid blows altogether
That makes sense actually. Late plate armor makes you pretty much immune to most damage, and realistically you'd only get hurt when hit in less armored weak spots.
Reducing the hit chance is the best abstraction so far, because if the hit went through, it went through.
If you really want to be autistic you can rename it "chance to damage" instead and have a visual representation of blows glancing off the armor but it's the same shit.
