Currently I tend to consider it a rule abuse. If B, C, D and E were NPCs, as a GM I would make С, D and E take attacking maneuvers, not Wait. B still can take All-out Defense, of course.

You see, if actual order of action is "AB BA BA" you can still claim that eventually everything will be OK and both sides will take actions one by one, but "AB BA" fraction can be a huge advantage for B.
