Quite right and why make your fastest, best archers wait for your slowest ones?

Maybe, but each archer will only be able to have so many arrows. What good is an archer if he only had 20 arrows and fired them all, already? If command thinks they’ll need archer support for more strategic things, they may not want them firing off as many as they can quickly, even if the archer believes each arrow will hit its mark.

Armies relying on archers often had a continuous resupply running towards archers in position.
