Unless you try and silence all the weapons being issued, (yeah right) your argueing a moot point.

I personally would rather the enemy hear the sound of my guns, whether it is at squad, platoon, or ODA level. Second and third order effects do extend beyond the impact of the round.

When you need discretion, then a can is useful.

The Big Army does not rely on it's discretion.
