I see what you mean now, just dismiss my horizontal wearing bit. Fails straight away no shield no cingulum and worst no scabbard.

Again being able to draw your blade in your space behind the safety of your shield. Having a blade in your hand and presuming how easy it is to do is one thing, but if you add basic drill practice, then warfare and kit which is not a controlled environment.
