Powerplay weeklies are not much

The weekly missions are like dailies in other games. Although I just joined PP, I was able to finish them in less then an hour (including looking for a fix to the powerplay commodities not being available bug).
Im not asking for a change to turn the weeklies into a hardcore grind, but a somewhat higher effort would not harm the missions. Or offer only 2-3 such missions as dailies.
 
These are very random and it really depends on which assignments you get. Gathering classified data can take a while (especially if you don't want to "relog" and farm one settlement over and over again). Scanning ships on the other hand literally takes a few seconds.

I personally think they are fine as they are now. They shouldn't keep a very active player occupied for the whole week, they are pointers for casual players what to do in the short amount of time they have.

Also, you get more assignments on higher ranks.
 
That's the key - completing a full set of ten assignments (available when starting the week at rank 40 or higher) will give something around 40,000 merits depending on the exact assignments you get, which will comfortably get you a "top 25%" weekly tier even if you do nothing else.

Or, put another way, the average Powerplayer isn't completing most of the assignments they already have, so there doesn't need to be more.
 
Then I guess I was just "lucky" with the missions I got.
Collecting 300k in bounties and scanning 5 ships is not very difficult
