A quote reposted on a Tangled tumblr blog I follow:
"varian picked a fight with medieval princess captain america, he was doomed from the start"
I needed this comparison in my life.

Optical spots in Upper Pleistocene,
An icy shiver down my Age of Stone,
And all tomorrows in my funnybone.”

if you're talking about armor, (which you actually might not and i'll sound like an idiot) then they actually do, they tell the enemy that you're someone who invested alot in that armor, therefore someone to be feared, intimidation wins battles on it's own

Spoiler
To your point (because I can't resist!) -- Snake's comment (as echoed by Ocelot) is that the engravings won't offer any essential benefits in combat. The wielder won't become more skilled as a result, and they may in fact overestimate their abilities. This is reinforced in the prior scene when Snake is all but drooling over the M1911 EVA provides him: he favors its technical value above the aesthetics.
But Ocelot obviously is full of crap when he lectures a random Diamond Dog merc about the impracticality of theatricality. After all, this is a man who rolls into battle dressed like a cowboy and gets a thrill out of the slow reload time of a revolver.
