Byzantine troops and the era isnt as "cool" to modern greeks since it reminds them of the church that is something they see everyday since they are born.Other than the fact that ancient greece is what attracts most modern greeks.The byzantine image is more on scholars and religious figures here.
And yes varangians and knights oh rhodes even i like more to reenact than a byzantine local.Anyways most of the troops were foreign mercenaries. This would only change if the image changed with but that will be hard. By going to the church and looking at st.George armed doesnt open up ones appetite for reenacting medieval greece.Its already there as the church and the priests.
