Battle Morale Loss on Partial Retreat is Massive Buff to Human Player

[ForzaA]

While teaching the AI to retreat properly would be great for the game, I don't think it's very likely to happen.

And while there's certainly some small benefit to being able to "force" your allies to retreat (you still lose the battle, and the warscore) - that is well outweighed by not being able to stack cycle quite as effectively.

It was a much bigger advantage to the human player than being able to order an allies' retreat, though.
