I do not think it work that way. RE do little damage long range. With Boys they would contribute without having to move into the fray.

As i said, that far dmg (the "contribute" in your sentence) must be noticeable or noone will use them, but then if it is noticeable on sapper it will create issues on section, so far and so on. while still scale poorly due to to utilities.

Commandos and Infiltration Commandos should get some difference between them. Yes, they are both commandos, but there is next to no difference between them.
Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

The only difference between them is the name and deployment method.
Other then that, its the exact same squad.
Does it really need to be more different tho?
There 3 type of commandos:
Insertion
Infiltration
build
It would be nice for these to be different, an AT commando already exist and one could have commandos with Thompson with no camo or 4 men long range specialist.
Although if the MOD team goes ahead with the Raid Infantry section it might be better if the simply scarp infiltration commandos.

Maybe there is some (de)capture rate too, I don't know. But nothing that you would really notice gameplay wise.
They are already two different units with two different commander abilities. Everything suggests that there should be at least a small difference.

I suppose if something like that was supposed to happen, it would need to come from abilities, like paras and support paras are.

Potentially yes, but if we find a functional niche there is no reason to not redesign one of the units to fit into it.

What niche that would be tho?
Obviously, AT niche is filled by BOYs and I don't see the need for "elite piats", especially on infiltration unit.
Long range is already covered by them picking up brens. CQC is self explanatory, so there is no combat niche they would need to fill and the only non combat that's missing is special mine? Booby trap?

Maybe, but I find it difficult again to fit a new unit properly. Long range is covered by IS, short range at least a little bit by the officer squad. Doctrinally by commandos. They have an AT unit via doctrine, so another one would be redundant as well. Don't know if another long range unit fits, since IS are already very good. I think some kind of real recon unit would be a gap to fill. UKF has many half-baked solutions in that regard.

What was the reason for removing the mortar from UKF? When I saw that change I assumed it was because it'd been made nondoctrinal, but it's literally just been swapped out for a loiter.
Why? Isn't filling the unnecessary holes in the UKF roster the point of that commander?

It was to provide smoke and occasional barrage mostly in 1v1 scenarios as originql 350 mp immobile mortar pit you needed to babysit made it impractical in that mode. Now that its much cheaper buy despite still being something you need to babysit, call in mortar is becoming somewhat redundant.

I personally find Piat Commandos viable, if they start with 5 rifles and 2 piat that they can put way.
I also find 4 men commands with V-k/Thompson viable solution.
If one want to go"recon" type maybe one can experiment with "De Lisle carbine" (if that thing works) and add an ability that allow to snipe weapon team only.

Stealth-capable AT squads are a terrible idea with too much potential for abusive gameplay. Big no.

Camo in not necessary or it could simply be static.
In addition one can already equip commandos with piats in live for abusive game play so I do not see the issue.
