The reason of the mine layers would be that space mining occurs at WP0 while movement occur later: a cloaked ship not expecting the creation of a new mine field might just crash into one.


Event though mineylaying is technically a WP0 order for non SD it still happens after movement, you can't throw up or expand a field to take someone by surprise. Minelaying is almost the last thing to happen and happens at the same time for everyone, even SD, the difference between SD and other races is that they can lay as a WP1 order so don't need to spend a year standing still for the minefield to be layed.
