I am sorry but I think you're blowing literally everything way out of proportions every time.

First of all, mother zombie immunity can be toggled off. You're not forced to have the immunity from top defending. Whether you chose to acknowledge it or not,
most people prefer being humans than zombies. The objective of ze maps is to win as humans. It's tiresome how some people try to pretend this is not a fact. This unwritten consesus is mirrored everywhere in the ZE community, ranging from how EVERY server rewards VIP to event winners that are humans or how maps are considered "beaten" when humans win. The map narrations describe human achievements, where some maps even state how "round failed, zombies touched the trigger". This is permeated all over ZE, almost every aspect of it. Coming in here and saying unloze should not recognize this consensus and that they regard being a zombie as a punishment is just absurd. ESPECIALLY when you can toggle this immunity off if you do not want it. One could perhaps argue why it's on per default but I believe the reasons are very obvious. This does not mean we can't reward zombies either or balance the gameplay. These two things do not cancel each other.
Second of all, what kind of a massive autist sees a zombie as a crown and decides to only target that zombie in a hoard of zombies pushing? That is terrible zombie defending if anything. Zombies with a crown don't mean anything, most people know this. Either you just knife afk humans, or you're the lucky one to get most knives in the mass-infection going on when humans didn't defend enough. Sure, once in a while someone actually earns it by doing a very sick play. But even then, I don't defend only them. Why would I shoot someone far in the distance cause they have a crown instead of the zm right next to me? A lot of the times, the zombies contributing the most to the round end are not the top infectors either. Sometimes it's enough to knife 1 human causing a chain reaction. I rather try to see which players are good as zombies. Either way, once again, you can TOGGLE THIS OFF. Not to mention how you suggest to reward humans with crowns but not zombies, as if humans with crowns can't be targeted by zombies.
Lastly the extra nade is a reward and I think it is very appropriate to reward people who do well for the team. It encourages me to defend well and it compensates for people that defend less well. You pretend as if those extra nades have a massive round-winning impact, which they do
not. No matter how much you wish to dramatize it. I think pickle described it best in another thread:

You constantly go against yourself. Even your suggestion regarding rewarding motherzombies. Why would you "purposefully stack the biggest tryhard" zombies giving all the other zombies a
signficiantly less chance of infecting. Very unbalanced.
I think we both agree that rewards are not meant to break the balance of the gameplay. However, I almost completely disagree in your opinions on how to achieve this.
