Mecha Sonic and Metal Sonic.

One thing I don't get about Dr. Eggman and his Sonic robots is that he is capable of making Mecha Sonic able to turn super, but he only used the robot once. I believe this is because when it comes to all Sonic based robots, Metal Sonic is by far most popular. In yet I don't get why Dr. Eggman has yet installed the technology Mecha Sonic had to make him Super.

Is it because Mecha Sonic discovered the secret of the Chaos Emeralds by himself? Was his golden colour really just his own metal heated up past 1000°F than just a genuine transformation?

My only logical conclusion is that Dr. Eggman is aware that Metal Sonic's loyalty is thin when he is most powerful, such as Metal Sonic Kai, Neo Metal Sonic and his further madness and overlord forms. Metal Sonic is loyal to Dr. Eggman but with his "link" to Sonic he is still independent which Eggman is well aware of and cannot grant him too much power. Also, Metal Sonic has the V. Maximum Overdrive which grants him boost as well as uknown power with side-effects yet identified.

Eitherway I'll be interested in seeing Super Metal Sonic someday.
