What CA made a mistake on is implementing a primary and secondary charge, instead of one single charge value. That is, although attack charges and alt+attack charges both use the primary weapon (namely, the lance), the EB Team chose to give the primary charge 37 and the secondary 18. As you can see, this is unnecessary. We can't really blame CA, as it isn't too difficult to write down '37' for both primary and secondary charge values. It effectively acts as if there was only one single charge value. The downside of this mistake is that us players must attack charge and then when the charge has died down, alt+attack to engage in melee. It's just a nuisance especially in MP because it adds unnecessary component to the micromanagement aspect of the game.
