Battle management/micro isn't your enemy. Spamming meaningless clicks might be.
I know a lot of players that love micro with freehand formation for example, which is a excellent feature. I'd love to have more features like this, I hope the selection box targeting will be in this category.
That's an interesting analysis, it makes me think of priorities.
That feature in the game is like having a high-end bike but only ever using one gear, while obsessing over automate a fan at higher revolutions to so it blows more air towards your face.
Just saying.
