Why? Isn't camouflage important? Isn't staying warm and dry 
important? The cape helps with both. It's not super-tech and it 
doesn't give any game effects.

They're the only ones modelled with it, and thus the only ones for 
whom it's mentioned in the SG2 background fluff. Other forces 
probably have their own solutions to the camouflage and staying warm 
and dry issues; and these solutions may or may not be combined in one 
and may or may not involve capes.

Of course not. All your troops have those capes anyway. They just 
have the rolled up in their packs rather than worn. Obviously they're 
fighting in nice weather.
