That turns his unit into:
A: a waste of a slot.
Or

Alexander's bodyguard was simply the first Squadron of the Cavalry. They were probably the men from around Pella, rather than necessarily the absolute elite.
KH Generals etc. were famous for fighting in the second rank as well.
Even Roman generals did this at times.
