there are only 2 soldier types. melee and ranged. but there are plenty of weapons, and in melee theres no need to vary beyond axe and spears.

This is NOT correct. You can put different kinds of soldiers in the same squad and they'll only get exp for their own weapon. I can show you my axe lord and spearmaster as proof.

They'll also get exp for weapons they don't have. I can show you my drafted-for-melee hunter and my other dwarves with Marksdwarf (and no Archer) levels as proof.

That did take like a decade to happen and it's possible that Marksdwarf demonstrations are low priority, based on the time it takes for embark dwarves with Biter / Kicker and Teacher to start teaching those skills, but dwarves will demonstrate weapon skills for weapons they don't have equipped.
