Genya said HQ wanted to keep RF6 operational and it was Hayate's decision to shut down, supposedly due to her belief she wasn't skilled enough to run it.
Carim also mentioned that RF6 would have to succeed in cases after the Relics case to survive, back during the Train incident. Though she might have been referring to the prophecy.
Back to the previous discussion

Weird, I remember calling that one of the two ethical options Thoma tried to take.

She has roughly 10 years in service at the beginning of StrikerS doesn't she?
Assuming ten years service in the US Army, it isn't unusual to have reached Major. So she's only one rank high. British Army I understand has different limits and Lt Colonel might be theoretically possible in 10 years.
It might be better if she was a Major but it isn't more than a grade out. And the Imperial Japanese Military [to name an example that might have influenced the writers] had a policy that officers decorated for conspicuous gallantry could be excused a time in grade requirement and end up a rank [or possibly more] ahead of where the usual restrictions would place them.
Of course TSAB as we know has a rule that limits recognition of that sort to units.
