Re: Loading units during deployment.
The "load all" command is only useful if you want to see what the AI does for a load, or for a quick test battle for developers perhaps.
The same goes for the auto deploy - its only useful to test the various AI deployment patterns or again, to set up a quick AI v AI test battle.
Neither is of much practical use for a regular human player outside the above few use cases, even though they have been in the SP games from the start.
(The formation move ("A" key) can be useful for group moves when out of contact, once you get used to its idiosyncrasies. But never when the enemy is in a position to shoot at the units!)
