That would be difficult to balance, as the complete control and information the player has means he will always be able to play more efficiently than was historically the case. This is amplified by having played a scenario before and knowing roughly what to expect in terms of opposition and when it is likely to arrive in a certain area.

A pinned state, or more frequent disruptions, would probably hurt the attacker more than you think. With many C quality units facing A and B quality units, it could slow the Allied advance to a crawl and make defensive fire (more) murderous as units would be more exposed to it.

Computer wargames are hardly ever "realistic" in terms of casualties as virtual troops don't think about their own safety, PB is not worse than most other in that area. I have a much greater problem with how losses can develop in games like Steel Panthers, Close Combat or Combat Mission, where your force might be wiped out completely, than here.
