Sounds like another case of the brass deciding they know what is best without practical input.

The round itself is definitely impressive but seems more of a DMR role than a regular infantry weapon. The funky bullet casing design just seems a hard sell to me though. I know it makes it more capable but not sure if that's worth the extra complexity.
