I'm not sure I see your point here. AoA (Long) has been one of the things brought up consistently as one of the ways Reach 2 can maintain some advantage (or at least force his foe to do Move and Attack or something else), so I think we're in agreement that it's one way for high-reach guy to maintain distance and menace the Reach 1 guy. So your point is that if the spearman chooses the really bad idea of making an AoA (Anything but Long) against a Waiting foe, he's hosed? I'm not sure that's a bug.
