sometimes just stepping out of a 10-mile hike with 100 pounds of gear on them to relieve themselves...I don’t see many women stepping up to fit into this situation.

That's more like one in 10,000 women. Only Olympic caliber female athletes could handle Infantry or Armor duty.

Bring ‘em. It’ll cull the herd.

You are right. What is the point of this just so that 2/10 of 1% will have an “opportunity” for combat. All at the expense of the morale and effectiveness of the units comprised of ready, willing and ABLE men.
