I can see your point regarding the psychological situation. But I dont think we should aply combat effects from CC only and neglect the shooting part. Pinning/supression would be fine.

> The psychological situation is completely different. When you take casualties from firing, the enemy usually is "out there" at least some distance from you. If you run you present a larger target plus a moving one which is easier to see than a stationary one, hence the instinct is to hit the ground and stay put (suppression/pinning).
