Equally, our leadership felt that we were fine as we were. I can't speak as to other units, but we never had an incident of essential kit being forgotten, or lack of spares.
Obviously we have had different experiences with different military cultures, and how you lead your unit is entirely up to you. Our leadership chose to treat us as professionals, and it paid off for them. Maybe if we had different leaders, or if the personalities on the Flight were different, then we also would have enforced packing lists rigourously.
Different strokes for different folks, and all that.
