Yes please.
It is pretty demoralizing when trying to lead a team but you just end up cleaning up the mess they've made. I can gauge how well security will work together from 1 minute in by simply doing a roll call. If they respond, brilliant. If they give me sass, even better. But lately unfortunately i've had cases where it's been tumbleweeds on the radio and i've been pretty much shouting orders into the void to players who are actively undermining the force.
I'd rather 1 good officer than 3 shit ones who will get their stuff stolen by some staffie. My standards are very low here, so long as they can actively talk on the sec freq, that to me is really what separates the good from the bad.
I don't want to demote officers, which I have done lately. It's a sad feeling, like I am part to blame. But you really need to have a few rounds behind you before you understand what I would call "the comradery" of security.
It is not necessary for you to play security to get this - being arrested by a good team will give the player a perspective on how things should work. In contrast, being arrested and beaten to a pulp by a shit team only establishes hatred and gives players the complete wrong idea.
10-15 seems like the goldilocks zone here, I'd feel 30 is a bit too much. If players play 2-3 rounds a day, that's only really a week or two before it's unlocked. No other strings necessary here.
