Subject: Changing player-elites from Halo 3 to Reach?

Just wondering why we can't customize and/or play as elites constantly like in Halo 3?
I loved playing as an elite in H3 and it's been the only problem I've had with reach, is there any reason why we can't play as them again? (Not just in elite slayer, but all across the board)

Friends before pixels.

Because Elites in Reach are stronger, and have better damage resistance.

Mainly because since Sangheili are larger, they would be at a disadvantage. As for the armor, Reach is more of a human story so they gave Spartans more armor. Also since spartans are the majority, they get more stuff.

Elites in Reach are bigger, faster, and stronger than Spartans.
