Thatguy, in fact the OOB space would be less of a concern as you'll replace say 10 various squads with just "rifleman", "Rifleman/LAW", "Grenadier" and "LMG Team" and their various combinations in formation section.
EDIT: In MBT that is, in WWII the Rifleman/LAW would be rather Rifleman/AT grenade

Except that the TO&E for basic infantry equipment changes with each of those ten squads. For each squad you replace you need to have each individual in the TO&E at that level, riflemen, automatic riflemen, grenadiers, etc. You have to create a variation for each of them every time one piece of equipment changes, which creates exponetially more variations. Whereas an equipment change of the basic infantry rifle only requires the creation of a single new unit to represent this in the current format, it would necessitate the creation of anywhere between 3-7 new units under the proposed sub-tactical format.

I don't think so : suppose you have 10 rifle units and 10 LMG types. In sub-tac 1 man format you need 20 units, whereas in squad format you'll need as many as 100 if each combo exists !
