Pockets knights for non-Bloodlines civs

I strongly believe pockets should at least make a few kts upon hitting Castle Age because they do a lot of damage at that critical moment OR cover my retreat if my feudal archers are getting hammered.

A lot of times pocket players will push back saying their civ doesn’t get Bloodlines. Thoughts on what to say to that? Here’s my rationale for those civs. (Non-meso, ofc)

Britons - can make some kts and still boom up with cheap TCs. Can then try an alternate strategy like forwarding my flank or their pocket or bringing a mixed archer/champ army. Wish they were flank. Byzantines- make kts and cheap camels. EZ Celts - similar to Britons. Start with kts then add siege or UU. Ethiopians - you got free food and gold! Make extra kts! Franks - lul Koreans - just a few kts then go pikes and mangos, I’m fine with that. Malay - great early kt rush, save the Karambit spam for later Vikings - similar to Britons. Start with kts then archers/infantry/rams.

I feel like a few of those do have kt handicaps, and I get it. But they can still fit into our joint army comp while offering much needed mobility.
