You don't want everyone in the squad to know the intel because they won't make proper tactical decisions on what to do and will break away in pursuit of an objective that the squad hasn't set. Ok, well allow all troops to spot but give that intel only to the squad leader.
Sorry, went a little off topic... Was relevant though....

No, everyone in the squad is fine. I'm talking about the entire empire receiving the data.
But why would anyone 3D spot for their squadmates if simple line of sight spots everyone on the radar? For that reason I think we're doomed to 3D spotting, whereas the real answer is not to have automatic line of sight minimap spotting, and then give squads 3D spots.
