Great idea, but the amount of work...whew, but maybe large TF in historic battles.

You'd have to write a script that would keep the angular offsets of the groups, regardless of heading. It's easy to displace a group by 7000m SOUTH, for example, but you'd need to actually have one group 7000m at bearing 90, one at bearing 180, and another at 135 degrees. A PITA.

And they might never be able to come or go from port for all that work (though you could change them to line astern I suppose to that.... Hmm.
