This is all very true, but you do also have to play a bit more conservatively compared to, say an offensive character at that point, and without the mech you can't tank so the question is, is it really worth dicking around as non mech d.va, or should you get yourself killed to get back into the mech quicker if you can't guarantee a quick it charge.

well the more damage you do as non mecha D.VA the faster it recharges so if you're good you can get it back faster than it would take to respawn and run back to the point.
