Navy should restrict itself to maritime activities, Army should restrict itself to terrestrial activities, Air Force should be restricted to atmospheric operations, and Space Force should concern itself only with things beyond the atmosphere.
Just one man's opinion.

This!!!!! ^^^^^^
I don't think the Space Force should be cannibalizing from other Service Branches. They just seem too lazy to create things on their own.
Hopefully, in the future they will recruit and train their own. Maybe this is just an instance of wanting to be able to hit the ground running with pre-trained personnel, but that just leaves the other services with a need to train and recruit more people from the ground up just to get back to TOE strength. What difference does it make whether newbies have to be trained and recruited by Space Force or another service? New is new, and 6 of one is a half-dozen of the other.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
