I don't know about you, but I like the idea of not having to estimate range; unsling a weapon; aim and fire, then switch weapons to deal with a close in target. I also like one consistant round in the section/squad, I don't have to think about which mag is where when I toss buddy a mag. The problem with three weapons is that you have three times the complexity of a single weapon; three drills to memorise, three sights to zero and get used to, three different mags to carry, ect. Plus the simple fact that you have to carry three weapons.
