The gamey part here really isn't that some fleets can escape, it's that only those with an arbitraty lower ID# ship in them can. It's actually not all that extraordinary to think a fleet sitting on a warp point at the periphery of a system could escape being caught in the blast of the sun blowing up.
Gamey is one way of phrasing it. It is a clear and problematic bug, it is the same as the old firing by player number problem.

As for "escaping" the supernova, unlikely, it blasts out at the speed of light.
