If the Silan missions were available in the ML then the training could take place, that is true, but I think that there would be a lot more half-trained homins setting forth without the skills needed to make the most of the areas around the cities. I also think that the mission-driven nature of Silan, which is already difficult for some players to wean themselves from would become even more difficult.
I found/find Silan to be an interesting introduction to the *scope* of Atys while keeping the success rate of encounters high enough to maintain interest. YMMV, etc.
The difficulties in transporting the code from Silan to all four central cities is irrelevant to the discussion of whether this might be a good idea or not, but is relevant to the question of "can it be implemented if it is a good idea."
