The question is: Is there a large enough advantage discrepancy there that people will always pick the 3-man variant for the sake of effectiveness instead of what playstyle they think is fun?
The Magrider needs a model update for this to work. Check the image in the first post, that shows how this can be done.

The idea is that the Magrider has a rotatable turret in both variants, but if it does not have a dedicated driver, the turret is locked in a frontal position (as it is now).
