Counter arguments such as "when did we last ever land on 2 in anger?" hold no water: if that's the line of attack then lets bin the BTR along with ditching drills and wet liferaft drills.
Slightly off-topic, but reminds me of the story, possibly true, possibly not, regarding the imminent life-expiry of the Hung Up Parachutist Release Assembly (HUPRA) on Albert some years ago....the bean counters were, allegedly, loathe to replace the holdings of said item with new stock as they clearly weren't needed, because the present ones had not been used!!
