Very nice!

As to being weak, sure they're not Personal Shield or Second Wind, but in a fast-paced shooter that split second faster reload time or weapon swapping can make a difference.
Basically, in terms of their weakness, I think in this present FPS environment, we are (and other players will also be) expecting Perks. However, in this game, they're perks you need to buy. Perks generally change the magnitude of the effect by a very noticeable (but not game-breaking) amount. They'll be tweaked in beta, I think, even if the Level 3 needs to be made more expensive, etc.
