Well, let's consider for a moment that both the Scaled (light) and Plate (heavy) armor types are grabbed from the light armor side of the tree. So it kind of balances in its own odd way. I agree that it's weird, but also I suggest if you want to take smithing seriously beyond being able to enhance enchanted weapons, go for broke and spend all the points. That way you get all the weapons. Plus, if you're looking for a little extra coin and have the ore/ingots already, enhancing your loot before selling it is always worth it.
