Iam right back from a larp. But players from a mercenaries company wearing full plates are looking for squire officially so people can discover that playstyle without buying a full plate armour. Unofficially, because with help, they can put their armour in less than 5 minutes instead of 30. So having squires would mean they can remove their armour without needing a lot of time to put it back
Which is technically the whole point of an ambush.
However, for the players it means that when not expecting a combat, (tavern, camp) they don't have to carry 15kg of metal, without blocking the other players every time someone needs armoured fighters

5 minutes in an ambush still mean you are armorless for the whole combat lol
