Reason:

For this debate on if combat units are better off if they exclude all women, pro was not able to sufficiently prove the merits of their case as applicable to all graduated female soldiers (as opposed to just random sampling of trainees). While pro repeatedly showed that female trainees are less effective than male combat veterans, this really doesn’t secure and hold the BoP to be applied to all female soldiers.
