It is actually a +2 on the Fheliel RP; sending early soldiers is a -2 but not sending them is already a +2 by itself so it is a total of 4 points swinging on the decision, which beats the +2 you'd get from getting 30+ Erosian Front threshold.

Currently in an optimized playthrough sending troops early doesn't seem worthwhile, might be like the raid options back in the 3AW, but I will hold judgement until the next part of the war, maybe it will still make more of a difference than just +7 Erosian Front points.
