Increase unit line of sight

I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to increase unit line of sight. Weapon ranges are long enough but the short line of sight means that units often stumble into encounters. The short line of sight also causes large battles to devolve into large confused masses, since even with radar coverage, laser firing units need to get visual sight before firing.

I think a slightly longer line of sight will help in making encounters more manageable and feel more like real battles.

In addition to the above, line of sight can impact the usefulness of the empire tree. In Sins the tree shows the nearby enemy units so you can evaluate the relative strength of force. For Ashes if you can increase the line of sight, putting enemy units in the empire tree becomes possible.
