and AA reasons. I mean, you can attach VTOLs to a commander, but it acts like a mobile VTOL strike turret, which you can get for a lot less money. No reason not to attach em to a commander, though.

Attach em to your regular commander. Did you know you could do this, or not? Just trying to clarify here.

Commanders are already pretty much the first unit targetted if they have significant numbers of units attached to them....
A cyborg commander's life expectancy would be ridiculously short.
On top of that, cyborg weapons are shorter range than their vehicle counterparts, a cyborg commander should be the same, meaning if it lead tanks, its life expectancy would be really really really short.

Besides, I think they are analogous to mobile command posts

Thats a lot of gadgets to pack into a cyborg commander's suit!!!

A vtol AWACS like commander would make sense, but could be rather overpowered the way commanders work in WZ
