Why would you call this a "cheat"? Surely having a unit with "eyes on the target" adjust artillery fire (regardless of who called it in in the first place) is a realistically acceptable occurence.

In order to plot a fire mission the firing battery needs to know:
1) Their own location
2) The location of the observer
3) The targets direction and distance from the observer
If a second observer tried to adjust the fire (s)he can't (well, not easily) because their location and the direction and distance to the target are be different.
Once upon a time I actually was an FO.
