Okay,
THINK about this for just a moment.
What if YOU were in their shoes. Consider it.
What if you were the chief in command, and you had a group of elite warriors under your leadership, who--as a team-- could have more than enough power to circumvent YOUR command over the whole force? Will they try to take you down? Chances are, yeah.
Could you fight them off? Chances are one to OVER NINE THOUUUSAAAAND.
Ipso facto: Would/
could you consider giving those individuals that opportunity?
Almost nobody could fathom yielding their power to anyone else if they don't need to. In this world, power means everything, and people will go to extreme lengths to protect that power (until it is pried from their cold, dead hands).

A few hours later, N&F announce their intentions to transfer into Hayate's unit using the same loophole in the bureau's policies that allows GF mages to transfer into the Air Force. And all the bigwigs can do is sputter and choke, by the binding laws of their own agreement, and pray that Hayate doesn't prove her unit's effectiveness. She does, and RF6 becomes Section Six.

That loop-hole to transfer from Army to Air is due to one's mage ranking. By the standards laid out by the TSAB, a mage of the rank of A is qualified to start learning how to fly. That's is where any mage can start the training to transfer out from any Platoon, Battalion, Company, Fleet, (etc etc) that they are presently in, and move out and be assigned to an Air Wing instead.
Nanoha is already in the Air Force.
Also, as for your question about Minimal to No military/political involvement, that isn't even the case.
The argument everyone is running with, especially WildGoose and TK, is called Common Sense.
Please, think about this carefully. Take what everyone has been saying so far, and think about it.
Don't go trying to defend your argument without understanding what we are saying. We're not trying to pull a "devil's advocate", we just want you to help you understand a mistake you made. Otherwise, people will continue to poke holes into your argument. While we have a slim chance of saying something flawed, I"m pretty sure most of what we say should be pretty straight forward.
