I appreciate that the changes were intended to prevent the incredibly boring tactic of heavy ships rolling up on smaller ones while invisible, and then opening up at point-blank, but this also seems to largely eliminate cloaks as an escape tool.
Particularly for transports, cloaks were an extremely expensive investment that could give you a fighting chance if cornered by a cruiser or similar nasty where there'd normally be no chance of survival.
