I shall partly answer this but try to find more answers;
in a battle with 50 planes you have one on 50 chances to be a causality in a 128 aircrafts battle you have statistically less chances to be shoot down. It is why the "big wings" did less damage.

The answer to your question is that the game is sold as a Battle of Britain simulator. Take a look at Battle of Britain II: Wings of Victory and the historical battles in that and you'll see the sort of engagements people were hoping to find in this game.

Now I think of it, that might explain why they changed the name from Storm of War:Battle of Britain to Cliffs of Dover. Cliffs of Dover implies the Battle of Britain without actually promising it.
