said flashlight solves a huge logistical bottleneck in the imperium.

And the romans then abandoned the chainmail in favour for Lorica Segmentata because it was cheaper and quicker to produce.

Its almost like logistics rule supreme when it comes to equipping large armies

chainmail is a pleonasm

just mail

Lmao nigga mail is what a mailman gets me XD

He is right tho, chainmail is a very modern word compared to mail (maille) is the proper term,
with a full sized armour being a mail hauberk

They can't make it, maintain it, create ammunition for it, or acquire large enough numbers of it to reliably equip the bugfuck insane numbers of Imperial Guard they have with it. Also, it's heresy.

and then they realized lorica segmentata was a bitch to maintain and bitch to storage and returned to chainmail.

Its almost like logistics rule supreme when it comes to equipping large armies

How the fuck is the Imperium going to grow wrathbone? Or make Gauss weapons or make Orkish guns that only work via paaaive ork pyker abilities?
