That seems to be a totally different proposition to changes in scans to see how long PL is.
Being able to scan and know the length of PL does not disable PL. Particularly as you could dist whore your way round it. It simply raises the risks of doing it and the benefits of not doing so.
But it also still requires defenders up at night - over an even longer period since you have to keep scanning to find more PL and organise more defence. And then deal with the live launchers. Im not really sure whether that actually on reflection sounds much better. Useful for alliance DC to spread things out. But for individual defenders its more time awake at night not less.
