2 Questions (odd Castles stats, flying missile units)

I also noticed that flying missile units walk if given any "fire" order. Are they stupid?

I once tried to see if this behavior could be made deliberately useful by giving non-missile flier units "Fire" orders to try and cause them to walk instead of fly, but it didn't work.

Another weird thing I've noticed is that Illithids, with range-100, prec-100 mindbLast attacks, are often seen walking towards an enemy that they then bLast. But surely they are not out of range, because mindbLasts can reach across the battlefield. So why are they walking, then firing?
