    Are you talking about dungeon scaling, or Cyrodiil battle leveling?

    Yeah, replayability is for suckers! I want every piece of content to be something that I can blast past once, and never think about again, because it's way too low level for me to bother with!

    Battle levelling exists due to the fact that your Level is (supposed to be) irrelevant in PvP, in order to ensure an even-ish power standing between players. PvP progression, prowess and skill is measured by your Alliance Rank, not your Level, so Levels are essentially disabled in Cyrodiil.

    Yeah, why should someone have a chance of beating me just because they're more skilled than me, when I spent hours grinding mobs in PVE to be uber leet without learning to play?

    Levelling up indirectly unlocks more skills. There are essentially three main progression streams:

    Levels - to gain progression in PvE (not useful in PvP)
    Skill Ranks - to gain progression in skills (for PvE and PvP)
    Alliance Ranks - to gain progression in PvP (not useful for PvE)

    Levels and Alliance Ranks balance each other out in their intended purpose; one is for PvE, the other is for PvP.

    There's also Champion Points, but CP in PvP is a whole other issue.

    The battle leveled stats are awful. Any reasonably well built character will have more in pretty much everything except spell/weapon damage and health, and some might even have that depending on how much effort they put in.

    I strongly disagree with the bolded part. Most of the skills unlocked by gaining alliance ranks are useful in PvE as much as PvP, think about caltrops, rapid maneuver, magicka detonation, vigor, guard, barrier, warhorn...That means with the exception of siege shield and flare, all of those are great.

    Also gaining alliance ranks rewards skill points, that again help the second point in your list.

    So having a higher alliance rank will make me stronger in PvP?

    It'll unlock skills, check those >>here<<.

    On a side note... You complain about battle-scaling, but don't even know about PvP mechanics?

    Damn, do some research before going berzerk on the forums...

    But that is sooo last century. Nowadays you just make loud noises and wait for the government to fix it.
