My gut tells me the if the Military helicopters are being held back, it is due to the high concentration of civilian helicopters in a relatively small space. Securing the airspace is essential and the TRF will accomplish that. Encountering a civilian "cowboy" helicopter during a critical stage of entering or exiting a remote LZ places the military crew in needless danger. The airspace can get very crowded and needs to be controlled.
Feel free to ask me how I know these things. Been there, done that!
