Yes, if you have ever seen the "stutter step dance" (SSD)(tm) this makes sense.

SSD = a ship moves into sensor range of a warp point, sees an enemy on the warp point, decides that he doesn't want to engage, moves 1 sector toward another warp point and now out of sensor range of the original warp point, now can't see the enemy, realizes that the original warp point path is shorter, moves 1 sector back toward the original warp point, again sees the enemy, wash, rinse, repeat.

Now that one I have never seen. Talk about stoopid! It's bad enough when ships change course to a different a much longer route because a WP several systems away is temporarily blocked by a non-ally ship. But this is completely ridiculous.
