The game has already been designed without prone in mind so I think we're okay. Crouching won't be a problem since terrain and cover objects will be tall enough to protect you. There, no reason for having prone now. You can escape enemy fire, and since apparently all you want it for, crouch takes that role.
I don't think we can pass judgement on the cover or the crouch mechanic till the beta tbh, for all we know the cover might shield your entire body or it might go up to your chest making you an easy target for a headshot sniper. :/

Also prone can be used for a number of other things besides taking cover.... like dodging bullets.
