You're quote conveniently omits other areas that I highlighted, including mental health and social work. I'll also add to that list the physiological effects of alcohol and drugs.

What I'm saying is, I'm not sure anyone can be cross-trained sufficiently in all of those areas and few people have the aptitude for it.

People generally get degress in most of these areas so that they have a sufficient expertise (law, social work, mental health/counselling, physiology of drugs).

Nor can you ignore certain areas (as your omission suggests) such as mental health as well as dealing with those under the influence of drugs because of how imtwined these are to the use of force.
