Support should not have the medic loadout it should always be the secondary Assault loadout. I have been a support player for 20+ years and hate and having to do the medics job for them, it also takes away a squad role away from assault. (I also think it was only given to support because we are the only ones who threw crates down in other Battlefields 🤣). Suppression IS a large part of being a support player it not just wasting bullets, if you know how to use the mechanic effectively just like any role has its finer points of skill of which there is the option to learn to become more effective as a squad player.
Sorry, I just don't believe suppression has ever been useful in a Battlefield game.
