It's a workaround to IFF-less ships being incredibly difficult to deal with. Pirate ID ships, Freelancer ID ships, that sort of thing. Shooting a swarm of neutral targets as a capital ship requires constant retargeting and is absolute agony.

It's a double-edged knife, though, correct. The fact that it also marks friendlies and even little cargo containers is unfortunate. We've investigated a few things to see if we could make it more precise (neutral and below, for example, not including friendlies) but that's not how this change works on a technical level. Maybe we can somehow make it not appear on grouped players? We'll see.

We're aware of it but as of right now I think the positives outweigh the negatives, but not by much.
