NPCs have infinite ammo, and Big Daddies never have to reload, so you're entirely right. I also agree that Gene Tonics and Plasmids should be used only sparingly on Big Daddies. Currently, every canon BD runs on a very specific theme, and giving a Big Daddy a bunch of assorted Plasmids and even weapons can dilute its feel. The other problem with Gene Tonics is that they frequently provide only passive effects, which will make the BD more powerful, but not more visibly powerful to the player.
