My point was that the American way of preparing for HIC, focusing on individual and large unit training, individual manning, unwieldy unit structure and equipment, focusing on equipment over training, etc etc, are both poor for HIC and IW and that many of these "reforms" are recognized as important for IW, but that they also help our HIC abilities. I.E. Better trained infantry with a better doctrine will provide a greater improvement in HIC warfighting ability then any new FCS system.

Added: another key mistake is individual training over small unit training. Training as a fire team, squad and platoon is more important then air assault or Ranger school and that "special skills" need to be unit not individual based. Yes, this means I would have to give up my shiny parachutist badge, but I can live with that.
