Neithan you keep coming out with some right drivel. Strenght, speed, longevity are great, really useful in fact to a combat operator. That isn't really debatable.

Having said that, if you look at the majority of special forces, especially those that favour protracted, small unit tactics where the use of covert tactics/asymmetric warfare (as opposed to peer/near peer combat/shock&awe type) or smaller, elite units leading larger, less elite units (military/civil/civilian) then the operators tend to be older types, later 20's and 30's. Why you may ask? Life Experience and personal/intellectual maturity.

All of which help win a fight, you might know and appreciate such assets if you lived any life other than seemingly that inside a books, solely looking and black and white sources, not applying life experience and common sense.

Been a Space Marine is not about been able to snap a Tyranid in half, but prosectute the imperial justice and maintain the imperial peace where possible. If it were all about gene seed etc then those chapters who lost the use of some organs would be destroyed as sub par, as this doesn't happen, its clearly not just about gene seed.

Please, have some presepective and stop hiding behind a couple of potentially limited sources.
