I agree that not taking a full 10man squad just for the free weapons is kind of odd. Even if I had ~100 points left to spend and couldn't fit a full squad, I would probably go for scouts instead, just to get more bodies in the hopes of holding backfield objectives. Marines with bolters are ok and all, but without special weapons of some sort they are a really expensive platform.
