Can anyone explain . . .
why cavalry platoons' defense and fire values are so low?

I ask because the Polish cavalry was considered to be the elite of the 1939 Polish Army, and frequently fought dismounted as infantry. While researching OOBs for 'Death Road at Oltarzew', I discovered that Polish cavalry units were equipped very similarly to Polish rifle units, with Mauser 98s and the Polish variant of the American BAR. It seems to me that Polish cavalry platoons, and by extension, most other armies' cavalry, should have defense and attack values closer to those of regular rifle platoons.

Thoughts on this?
