Should I pursue ones of these for keep putting points into the normal warbond? I've just unlocked the tier with the penetrating Liberator.

I'd hold off if you don't have everything unlocked already. In the time it takes you to get everything else unlocked, they might release another warbond that has stuff you really want and you can grab that instead. I will say that the only thing that I find incredibly useful is the Breaker Incendiary for bugs. Everything else is highly situational but still very useful.

I'll definitely be playing after this drops, I saw they added some new resource sinks for ship upgrades, but not enough for me to re-max out again.

The quality-of-life fixes have one major highlight: an end to grief kicking. Currently, players can boot an unsuspecting ally from the game, meaning they earn no rewards from the match — it’s a particularly mean form of griefing. Now, if a player is kicked, they will spawn into a new session as host, and they’ll keep all the goodies collected by the team in the previous session. There are other changes coming, including to the social menu, but this one is a huge fix for one of the game’s most irritating issues.

So what happens if you kick someone who IS griefing? They get to be assholes and keep all the resources?

They don't "keep" or take the resources, it just gets duplicated and split off. The game that they were kicked from gets everything still.

I guess I misunderstood and assumed that anyone who gets kicked will receive the same rewards as everyone else on the team and if that were the case, then they can join other people's games, grief to their heart's content, and when they are forcibly removed from the game, they're put all alone with a decent amount of free resources. If this is only applied to people who are kicked at the extract then I'm fine with it, but if this applies to everyone who is kicked, then it's a massive step in the wrong direction in regards to combating griefers.

They get a snap shot of whatever the rewards are at the time of being kicked, if that wasn't clear. Not sure what else they can really do other than improve the reporting system. So yes, technically they could wait until extraction to start griefing, then get kicked and still get rewards. But if they start early they get kicked early and don't really get to get samples or anything else at the time of the kick.
