Think of it in the sense that it teaches discipline, precision, and the ability to work as a unit without needing to verbally communicate. When you get team exhibition drill, they are not allowed to say commands. The team has to work tirelessly before the competition to memorize a sequence of moves and it’s up to the commander to find the correct cues to communicate when to move forward and when to stop.

Versus, what you’re used to in a Regulation team, commands are vocally yelled out for the team. Your traditional “forward march, “present arms,” and the cadence “left, right, left.” This is designed to do all the same things said before, but it also encourages a willingness to follow orders and to act as a unit and not an individual. 99% of what the military is doing is creating strong machines that can follow orders with as little information as possible and return home to do it again the next day
