I agree that the lack of proper arms and armor does not completely suspend disbelief, entirely, but it does leave some glaring plot holes.
Like if the only ones capable of effectively combating are children up to a certain age And they have been doing it for 50 years why no armor at all, don’t these people care for their children?
Chain mail sure would provide a lot of protection and it would not be necessary for it to be as heavy as traditional combat mail with ghosts not being armed, heck, you could just impregnate cloth with a silver and salt solution probably (maybe that’s what those outfits are like but they never mentioned) and make goggles out of silvered glass etc; etc.
There are lots of things that should have been thought of and implemented after 5 decades of fighting is all I am saying.
