Very interesting subject! 
I think another reason is that the "classical" roman fighting with a short sword and a largue scutum needs more training than fighting with a long sword (or a spear) and a oval scutum.
We can think that in the late roman army factours like training and discipline were not so important like in the laterepublican or imperial armies.
