It also makes it more attractive to higher level characters, since I don't think the IK's are "low level" by any standard(I would have to go mid level probably) and without attune armor it quickly makes no sense for them to continue wearing it.  Ceremonial armor effectively raises the AC by 7 so a jedi or jedi/soldier( w/+2 Dex) would normally surpass it at about 7th level(+3 Dex at 6th) while with attune armor it takes it's usefulness up to about 10th level(11th level with a +3 dex).  I see the IK's as being somewhere along the 6th to 10th character level and this talent, at least in my mind explains why they continue to use the armor.  In my oppinion they are a practical lot, especially as far as combat, and wouldn't wear armor that impedes them.</blockquote>
