Default Defending warp points with an ally

Using 1.78 in a PBW game, we have discovered that if you defend a warp-point with an ally, you will both be place further away from the warp-point than if you defend by yourself. This means that having an ally with only a couple of ships or units could actually weaken your defense as you are likely to give up the first fire advantage.

This could probably be considered a bug? What do others think?

I know it is a royal pain in the *ss.

If you want to mess an ally up, just drop a SAT in every warp point.

How about a SAT with a cloaking device on it, so he won't necessarily notice.
