Each weapon Fusion has an Item Level, and a Fusion can not be placed on a weapon of lower level.(So you can't buy BURST for your level 1 Azimuth Laser pistol.)
So when you place a Fusion on a Level 1 Azimuth laser pistol, you can only put a LEVEL 1 fusion on it.
It would cost 120 credits to do so, then later transfer it to a level 7 blaster for 780 credits more.
To transfer a Seal to a level 7 blaster would first require you to have purchased the seal at a minimum of level 7, plus 10%. So the upfront expense would be 1716 credits. Far more then a level 1 Character can afford.
But, how many Level 1 Fusions are going to be that useful when you have a level 7 blaster?
But otherwise, from what I can see, you are correct. It's cheaper to install a fusion on a weapon of the minimum level for the Fusion, then pay the transfer cost to the higher level weapon.
Of course this means your character is either keeping a horde of weapons on hand as he levels, or has to buy a weapon for the fusion. One requires storage, and loss of income. (From selling your outdated weapons.) Buying a new weapon each time would likely cost more money then you would save on the half price to transfer.
