Warriors aren’t interested in what you feel is fair, or really cool, or if someone is willing to give it the old “college try” although they can’t cut the mustard.
Warriors want to kill the enemy and win the battles with as little loss among themselves as possible. They want standards higher, not lower.
What combat leader would want to replace his man warriors with a shorter, lighter, weaker, sicklier, less aggressive, slower moving, more terrain limited, reduced distance traveling, hygienically vulnerable, smaller weight carrying, more prone to injury, version?
He would have to rewrite all the knowledge and experience, of what his troops are capable of and reduce all that accordingly, and simply eliminate some capabilities entirely, all things the enemy can measure, and use against his military.
just saying that when the SHTF, these mind games won’t matter.
Hands down the best post on the subject.
Good job.
