I'd also really like to see a CS version with more HE rounds, which would better reflect its (de facto) role in Vietnam.

While a CS version of the Ontos could be done (and was SERIOUSLY considered) for the reasons you state again it cames back to simplicity.
We have a single specific vehicle with a limited deployment history and an intended role. As it just so happens the battles in one specific part of the world have no real use for a vehicle with that role BUT by changing the ammo loadout of the vehicle it goes from nearly useless to fairly useful (I say "fairly" because the on-board ammo supply of the Ontos is very limited). The total number of units, covering all dates from 01/46 to 12/20 is limited to 999.
Is this vehicle, with that ammo loadout critical the the battles in that part of the world?
My answer was, no.
