With no ordinality to the options you can still use knowledge of what options are being selected.

The bullet points aren't numbered if you assume they are in order then the DW squad can do this but the DW Command can't., which shows the inconsistency.

If you believe you can select the order then you need to show permission to do so. The Ork FaQ illustrates a precedent that this is the case, however if you're looking at precedent then the BA FaQ comes in and says no.

If you believe that order is irrelevant or that the upgrades occur simultaneously then your TH/SS replaces the CML along with all other weapons.

So your options are:

1. DW squads can but command can't
2. Prove permission to choose the order of upgrades without looking at precedent.
3. Look at clear precedent and accept that you can't have TH/SS replaces+ CML anymore.
4. Assume the upgrades are not ordinal and therefore you can't have TH/S + CML.

Personally I'm for option 3. No one has been able to do option 2. Option 1 is stupid. Option 4 has some merit and is closest to RaW without looking at precedent.

A terminator can fire his cyclone missile launcher in addition to his STORM BOLTER

It doesn't get any clearer than that. The terminator starts with an SB & PF. He then replaces these with the TH/SS - before becoming the 1 in 5 who can take a CML. Your arguement is meaningless, and you haven't even got the intelligence to accept that and back down. Sick of guys like you - read the book.

READ THE BOOK. If you READ THE BOOK, you will see (or rather you won't but there you go) that you are wrong. It's basic English. The only person trying to over-complicate matters is you. READ THE BOOK.

No-one needs to 'prove' the order of upgrades to you. It's quite clear if you READ THE BOOK.
