I have wondered if this can be rectified in SH Commander as I find it a bit annoying as I know in advance whether it's an enemy or neutral purely by seeing if TC has dropped to 1x or 8x when ship spotted is announced.

That's odd to me. I use Commander and I get dropped to 1x for every ship spotted - enemy, neutral and friendly. Makes leaving my home port a lot of 'fun', but I use it anyway.
