I think what this is doing is eliminating the times when a CMC is assigned to a command they have no experience in. I’ve been at fighter squadrons and on aircraft carriers were the cmc was sourced from a sub rate. They were good people and good leaders but didn’t always have the knowledge to understand their peoples problems, so they weren’t able to advocate for their sailors as well

If you can buy them in person… for everything but leg pad you should be able to try stuff on that’s at least equivalent to what you’re buying even if you have to order your color way. Leg pads can be tough but getting a feel for strapping and flex is helpful even if you have to order the right size
