I personally would far prefer it if cov ops were something you could specialise in. They should actually be more difficult for most people perhaps through a slightly higher base alert but easier - and ideally far more beneficial for the few who specialise. I have not heard of people making cov ops their main income source for a long time now.

To this end I would agree with the stealth boost for SC. But I would also make it so that the effectiveness of the cov op were increased and that you need quite a lot of them to make a big difference. This has the additional benefit that it means there is a way to strike back at the cov oppers; by using SKs. I also think we should get rid of the absolute immunity at 100% as stealth should be able to go higher for those who are specialising, though this could equally be done by making better use of the 1-100 range.
