Soak off attacks, love or hate them and what to do?

[Weasel]

Ok, we have all done it, and we have all had it done to us. I am speaking of the soak off attack where you spot a tank but know that he will get first shot on your tank if you pop out so you grab your trusty infantry squad and start spraying the tank hoping he will shoot back and waste his shots that turn.

We all know that it is part of the game and code wise nothing can be done about it, but what do you think about it? If you had the option would you somehow "turn off" the soak attack, or would you allow it to go on?

While the filter will help some, the attacking infantry unit will still button the tank and increase the attacking tanks chance of getting off first shot.

What do you think could solve this, if you were so inclined? Perhaps saying that only one non-afv (anything that does not have penetration capability) unit may fire at an afv before an afv must engage?
