That would probably be a matter of cost of manufacture and training, rather than the overall effectiveness.

they're very expensive yeah (which seems to be half the reason they were used at all, for showoff purposes), but spears beat swords for armies.

genuinely curious about any sword armies you know of Thyrzul. tercio is the other major use of swords (and only in equal numbers with pike and guns) I know about, and they were thoroughly outclassed by straight pike/gun mixes.
