I agree with your points.
But in my experience the largest advantage of TIE swarm is that TIEs can really block your way and force collisions.
I absolutely agree that it's a big advantage to the squad. Elsewhere I've even suggested that an Imperial squad might be stronger if it's got 8x Academy Pilot (instead of 4x Academy, 4x Obsidian) because it's guaranteed to have Initiative and has incredibly flexibility in the order it moves its ships, letting it really run the roadblock strategy well.
