This seems to be a minor issue or rather, a case of player inattention; if a player decides to gather resources while under enemy fire, that’s not a problem (towers or archers deal low damage).

I agree do some degree. But I still think from a practicality/logical point of view; if you are out working the fields and you see an enemy raiding party, or more importantly one of your comrades is being attacked chances are you are going to take up arms and defend, or retreat

if your opponent is really good, and you are nub like myself and they are attacking from 2 or more areas, you might just be focusing on one and not realizing you are being attacked somewhere else.

Where? I see only six buttons: Self-Destruct, Abort, Attack, Garrison, Occupy Turret (which I don't know yet what it does) and Repair.

Vanilla UI doesn't have space to display all unit action button, so it doesn't show it. You can use the hotkey as an alternative.
I can also recommend using ModernGUI as others and myself contributed to fixing bugs and limitations of the game UI. There are at least 100+ bug fixs like this in the mod. You can also choose to wait a few decades  for them to be addressed in vanilla (no sarcasm, just a extrapolation of the time to get one item merged), staff and contributors do whatever they can to make it happen but the process is slow by nature.

I didnt even notice it on moderngui, will need to study more carefully.

The absence of a bug is generally less noticeable then when it's here

Jesus Fricking Christ... you are totally right. Just tested it and it works perfectly. In part it's our fault for not reading the tooltip, but it's not intuitive to give it such a simple name which, I think, in most games means something else, more so when most people talk about "Call to Arms" (the button should be called like that). Btw, what does Occupy Turret do? The tooltip is not clear enough, and I can't find any specific info. Maybe I just haven't come across "turret points". Also, as per one of my previous suggestions, a "Capture" button should be added.

Well, actually, it would be nice that, if the terrain is clicked, units would go there after dropping resources, but instead, if the button is used nothing happens, and if the hotkey is used, the message "some unit(s) can't go back to work" appears, and nothing happens.

Removed Shift+Z as hotkey since that might have been my own definition
