Sort of like why in the game a crew has to remount it's own vehicle, or why a rifle squad cannot grab the Sagger left laying on the ground after it's crew got mowed down several turns ago. 
Scouting is a skill set, an MOS, 19D according to this;

 All I can say to you is I know scouts in the game can behave as scouts do in reality spotting the enemy and remaining unseen if handled correctly WITHOUT having to resort to coded "eyeball GSR"
