G36 sight above bore height is a deal-breaker for me. Ergo's suck a la HK, who refuses to listen to guys who have decades of high quality saturation experience as subject matter experts on infantry small arms. HK can't be told, put simply. Their designs are uberperfekt in their minds, and they don't really have many original designs to speak of, considering that their most popular lines are from pre-War and WWII German companies that had a few engineers escape to Spain (CETME), and Eugene Stoner.
This is what stuck out the most for me. There are no key performance parameters established. How do you move forward with that?

“It’s unclear what additional capability this new rifle will have over the modified M4,” according to the report. “Key performance parameters such as accuracy, reliability and lethality have not been established.”
