Why don’t more players use “Call to Arms”?

[AlexHerbert]

I’ve noticed that many players — even some pros — send their gatherers straight into battle still carrying resources like wood, stone, or metal.

There’s a great option called “Call to Arms”, which makes units drop their resources at the nearest building before joining the fight.
It saves time and keeps your troops lighter and faster when responding to attacks.

I really recommend using it — it’s one of those small settings that can make a big difference in real games.

Can only agree that it is underrated.

You can roughly estimate, moving 100 CS who were gathering, they'll carry 500 resources on average. These are resources you lose AND that you will give to the enemy as loot once your army dies.
