Actually that's perfectly logical - someone has to keep the horses  It's the same situation as with Motorcycle units.
(For example during and after the American Civil War, the cavalry usually deployed dismounted, forming a skirmish line, with 1 man out of 4 (or, in extreme cases, of 5) keeping horses. |
I consider this to be something of a good thing.
At the Battle of Brice's Crossroads, Nathan Bedford Forest employed dismounted cavarly in a defensive line against Federal infantry, and changed out his holders to counterattack and pursue the enemy forces with fresh men and horses.
I do something similar in alot of my early campaigns, with the addition of tankettes and armoured cars.
