Yes and no, in game when ONE of the 2 companies finish digging the defensive bonus works fall ALL units in the hex, this means you only need ONE company pass the test, problem is when you have for example 2 or more companies split, on paper this increase chance to finish the work (2 or 3 units working meand 2 or 3x success time but with lower chance) in reality means same number of companies combined have a better chance to complete defensive works.
I refer you have a battalion with 75% success chance but if you have 3 split companies you only have 25% 3 times (like pass test 3 times with a 25% chance) that is a lot less than 75%.
My point is in that in the moment in the hex trenches are not property of one of the units in hex because all units receive the bonus i think some kind of bonus in digging % in density is needed, not the 2x or 3x from 2-3 companies combined but maybe 1.5x and 2x.
We can say the same when we have a battalion digging, A company is not working for B company but the bonus is for the battalion, as i said i understand is not the same have the battalion working as an unit because it can have support units (engineer platoon for example) but 3 companies even from different units with same number of soldiers compared with battalion needs some kind of bonus.
