Pretty sure Sayle is going to go with reality rather than EU4 for issues like this.

10% Cav is good when everyone else doesn't have such cav at all.

Which is weird since Cavalry should be good against the natives.
For combat. That doesn't mean decisions don't have other, social effects.

Heavy cavalry will be a huge advantage for us.

It's a bit meta yes but. The arquebus is being adopted by Spain as we speak. The Tercio is around the corner. Europe is about to start modernizing its military and then never really stop doing so...
And they will come here. Human curiosity will only be staved off by a dead king for so long.

Because heavy horse is really effective against the natives. Furthermore, horses will still provide a battlefield role up to world war 2. It also gives the nobles a "release" valve, and provide us a useful nobility (much like the Prussian ones).
Edit: It also incentives the nobility to "prove themselves". War will weed out of their weak members and social intertia will do the rest.

That's not going to make heavy cavalry useless for a long, long time, and it will certainly never not be effective against the natives.

Cavalry are the biggest advantage we have against the Natives (at least until metalurgy improves) and the elite shock troops would fare even better.

They should also do remarkably well against the Varangians and Native American Empires.
When the time comes, I fully expect us to simply outnumber our European counterparts and be able to outflank them with our cavalry.

Just to be clear, we are going back to Europe for some revenge after we establish dominion over the Americas right?

Probably not. Not unless this tl reaches World World 1.
