I understand that it is supposed to be the flavor of the game to not
premeasure, but...I always had a hard time with that. I figured that
premeasuring was just reflective of the data your battle/navigation
computer(s) are calculating for you. Your sensors, computers, and
subordinate officers all give you the necessary information required
for you to fight your ship, so I took this as being encompassed in the
premeasuring bit.
So, to answer, I allow it.
