I'm always open to that possibility but some substance to the response would be good.

Ok, I'll give it a shot...
What is the point of having a Deconfliction Service if your response to encountering conflicting traffic is to downgrade to a Traffic Service?
Do you really think that an ATCO would vector an airliner into an unknown contact on his screen? What if it was your family on board? Wouldn't you want the best available service for them?
As you said, Military aircraft in the UK Low Flying System don't have to be talking to anyone. They can operate autonomously on a 7001 Squawk (which is deemed unvalidated and unverified). No chance of coordination on that.
I'd recommend you have a read of
CAP 774 Appendix A . This is the book that the prosecution lawyers would throw at the controller that didn't discharge his duty of care.
Hope this helps to explain the viewpoint from the other end of the radio.
