You can say character armor but when other grunts get the same treatment...
Plot device will probably never cease to exist in Gundam...Unless you include the original first Gundam series, of course.

Perhaps the randomness might be explained in the way how things explode. I'm not even close to being a novice in pyrotechnics, but what I think is that perhaps sometimes the reactions that cause explosions as parts of a suit get cut off might not occur, simply because they can't happen. Maybe one factor wasn't there, and what we get is simply a muted defeat from the grunt suit.
