That's because Ubisoft is too lazy to upgrade the enemy AI. There is no other reason than sheer laziness. At least make them panic or some normal reaction rather than just stare at butterflies while waiting their turn to get slaughtered. Maybe if they all attacked simultaneously, like actual soldiers would, Connor might actually have to use guerrilla tactics and the player would have to use his brain.
