The recent buffs to HP of all Forsaken was most sorely needed by the Khorne variant in my opinion.

One thing you forgot to mention, though this applies to all Forsaken, they have the unique ability of shrugging off any small missile fire meaning they won't stagger back every time they get shot, where as even Chosen with shields will still stop in their stride when shot (by bullets at least) slowing down their advance slightly.

I feel like this is a unit that would do a lot better in some other army.

Khorne is awash in great choices for melee infantry, so doesn't really need to split niche hairs often with them, and doesn't really do the more finicky melee roles often.

If this was a unit in say, Skaven, or Vampire Counts, or maybe Tomb Kings or the Empire, or something, their strengths would be a lot more notable and be a nice tool in those boxes, to be able to just fling them at and shred certain targets, threaten off faster flank units from harassing warmachines, ect.
Just, in Khorne specifically, there's a LOT of big smashy infantry, and in Daemons or Belakor or something, they're directly competing with the other 4 flavors of forsaken

The only marked unit that is worse in every way than the Undivided ones (other than flaming attack, which isn’t ALWAYS worse)

I...*really* don't like them.
Best case scenario they are useful against cheap-early game spear-infantry, but even there, i might just recruit bloodletters and be happy with a unit that will do at least resonable damage even in late game.
