About Japanese Optical Sights

With the recent update, the Type 96 light machine gun no longer has the texture of the optical sights.
The Japanese Type 96 and Type 99 light machine guns had a 2.5x scope. Since Japan does not have fully-automatic guns like the M2 carbine, how about reinforcing the guns according to the individuality of each country? For example, the Allied Forces should use high-rate guns and semi-automatic guns to strengthen close-range weapons, while Japan should strengthen medium-range weapons by installing optical sights on Type 96 light machine guns and Type 92 heavy machine guns?

I think first they should improve bipods and actually make them useful before adding the scopes for the Japanese LMG, in my experience scoped LMG are just terrible without a bypod system, specially because they have awful recoil and the only way to make them work is laying on the ground…just look at Rising Storm 1 and its bipod system but that’s my opinion.
This is how the Japanese LMG Scope Reticles should look:
