What IF the Covenant have been developing something in our wake? What IF they've followed suit to our SPARTAN program, tweaked it a bit, and indeed are developing an answer to our OWN heavily armored and augmented special infantry? They are, after all, scavengers and not creators. That phrase, coined in the books, may not always apply to Forerunner tech.
It MAY also apply to US in the sequel.
Imagine...a Gold Commander Elite.

You are right about the covenants scavanging non forerunner technology, because in FoR, I think it was the admiral, was talking about how the covenant were trying to take our AI, and they were learning to take information out of our computers without having to board our ships. That is why all ships must purge their navigation databases before contact with the covenate (as per the Cole Protocol). Also, in First Strike, you learn that the covenant did steal our AI.
