A few skirmishers causing an army to move more cautiously I can understand.
But just a scout? That should be fixed.
But then it would be hard to recognize SCs who should be able to cause an army to stop (at least it does in the movies)

I don't think it needs to be fixed. I'm just identifying what feels like an exploit to me - far easier to ask people not to do it.
