Please improve the respawn system

Each member in a squad is a unique role. Ergo, it is not possible to switch squad leaders without switching roles, and there is no way to switch roles (and essentially switching characters) without dying and becoming the new character.

Potentially they could allow switching characters within protected spawn areas without the COST of death/reinforcement, though functionally your character would still have to "die" to take on the new role. However, that would still allow the bonus of letting you constatly swap around your spawn locations to a more advantageously positioned squad leader as necessary without any cost, so that probably should not happen.
