Default Troops: Infantry?

This may seem strange but i would like to see the addition of Infantry as unit type.They would function as troops, however they would get a bouns against defending population, but get a penalty against actual defending troop type units. You would design them just like any other. Add parts like "Laser Rifle II" "Body Armor IV" etc... . And to buy them you would have to pay minerals for them. They would be displayed the same way population is 1unit=1m. So lets say you made an infantry type unit "Super Dude". 5 "super dudes" would be displayed as 5m Super dude. Mabey you might even have to convert population?, mabey not.. . It also would make the "Phsyical Strength" aspect of stats make sense... .

And in terms landing on planets with opposing atmospheres mabey a part like "hostile Enviroment suit"?

I mean its just an idea but i like it...
