Counterproposal to:
Current: Embarked units defend with combat strength equivalent to their base combat strength when on land. They deal no damage
Proposed: All embarked units have the same combat strength (unless they have an embarked modifier promotion. This combat strength changes with every era.
In most cases, naval units come at the middle/end of the era, so frequently ships from the previous era will be attacking ships in the current era. The goal is for the previous era of ships to be dealing around 55 damage to embarked units (before experience from combat kicks in), allowing naval units to two-shot embarked units.

(7-49) Embarked units lose movement points when starting next to enemy naval units
yeah im lukewarm on the specifics here, but its an interesting idea; i do agree with OP that naval vs embarked feels a little lackluster in any case
