Yes, we get the supposed appeal to authority fallacy we are seemingly committing. But objectively, the current armour is better. It blends in with more types of terrain than the red and gold could, and no common soldier could afford that, with all its intricacies and decoration. The muddy brown and green simply is more realistic. Perhaps for a royal guard the red and gold armour could work, but for an entire army? Any strategist or accountant could see that spending vast amounts of precious materials on something that looks better, instead of something that works better is utter nonsense. This mod aims for realism. The current armour adheres to that goal.
