Because debating how/if a thing fits the setting is a huge portion of what we do here, so I don’t see why it is necessary to bemoan the status quo. If you want to believe that a totalitarian, largely uniform Imperial military will tolerate mavericks who deviate from doctrine simply to justify including a largely useless gimmick system with limited tactical and strategic value, that’s certainly your prerogative in your campaign. My point is to highlight the obvious issues and drawbacks. YMMV.

At this point it seems clear to me you are personally attacking my posts and responses.
