I had no problem with it.
Cartridge belt implies cartridges (bullets to the gun dumb)
If you have cartridges you are implying you have a gun.

I am not sure I agree with the logic but I understood the statement.
I just assumed they wanted something to differentiate you from the

watch.
They also had leggings but nobody ever told us to put them on.
