Except - an attacker who is within 1 hex is already within the reach of the Pole Weapon (except for Javelin) and may be past the pointy end unless the defender re-directs his pole weapon. Such a move should not trigger the pre-emptive Early Pole Weapon Attack Sequence. I agree that this is about geometry - I just disagree with your interpretation.
