I know it's already common practise for an infantry battalion to concentrate its best infantrymen in the recce and assault pioneer platoons. We're really just talking about extending that.

OK, I'll buy that. But with all units scaling down, a full-sized "commando" company is a larger percentage of the total unit strength than a pre-war recce platoon. Watering down your rifle companies is still something not to take lightly. I see your point, though.
