In all fairness.... that's really not a totally far fetched reason.
Much of the current GWOT has revolved around urban areas....a good portion of the population in the US lives in/near urban centers, and everyone wants to ape their favorite MLDK unit... do the math...
Further, unless you have a serious professional need for mission-specifc gear, the modularity of modern gear means that, if the end user puts some thought into their purchases, there' no reason their equipment can't be re-arranged as needed top fit both roles.
I mean... a chest rig is still a chest rig, and a pack is still a pack... the only things to think about beyond that is how much you need to carry and armor options. Maybe a camo scheme.
So to be blunt, I'm not really sure what you were hoping to see here, aside from a more mission-specific level of tactical cosplay....?
