Special Operations forces are given considerable leeway to customize weapons and adjust uniform standards to the situation. I think the "cyberwarriors" would/should argue that their machines are their weapons and so should have similar latitude.
They have argued and lost because the big picture military only cares about PT tests, marksmanship, and hair cuts. No one important enough to change policy understands how computers work.
For years there was debate between the weightlifters and the runners in Air Force leadership over the best way to ensure a fit force. The runners won, which is why a waist measurement is now included in the PT standards.
