Some kind of salvage mechanism is probably fair but garrison defenses are all breakable and that's really the main issue. At equal level, an attacker with decent heroes can break all gold defense with bronze so no point in stocking gold mechs on wall and engineers are not as good as spiders but no worse than human front line units for wall if fully researched. Everyone has bad matchups and dwarf lines up well against just about everyone till very late game anyway, at which point you should have built up a huge lead thanks to huge advantage in void and punishing deadeyes that deter attackers. It looks like the next patch is going to let you swap units when you change races so feel free to see what it's like with other races if you really think dwarf is at a disadvantage late game
If you think Dwarves can break equal level/research human garrisons on grassland in a reasonable capacity, you are mistaken. I can provide many videos that show the contrary.
Breaking equally researched typical gold defenses with bronze units for anyone requires an almost unrealistic amount of healthpots and boost or people. Silver armies with high injury rating are a good way to whittle down a defense, but only if you are human of course - dwarf's silver frontline is inadequate or mech.
Regarding race switch, I don't suspect them to include garrison units. And if they do, people who exploited resurrections during the events will have garrisons full of lvl 15 golds of their races choosing, which would be a shocking oversight from Lilith.
In regards to your opinion about miners, what I said at the start of OP is all that needs to be said. What you suggest is ignorant beyond warranting additional response.
