That doesn't seem to fit, because every "operator" you see in Iraq is sporting a RAS, Aimpoint, AN/PAQ, vertical grip, and Crane stock on their rifle. By your definition an HSLD operator should be using a bone stock M16 and only a pair of spare mags in either pants pocket.
The way the term is used these days, it seems to essentially be military-speak for "1337".
