The important point is that the first ship has armor 405 and the second around 380. If this fleet hits the minefield, the first ship will take 400 damage and the second 100 (both use non-ramscoop engines).

So this case is not about sacrificing the first ship to save the second but to allow both ships to survive the hit. Obviously the player uses the knowledge of damage allocation.

The question is whether this knowledge is allowed to be used.

IOW he is still taking the full 500dp damage, but instead of spreading it over 5 equal ships "as usual" he's spreading it over 2 designs.

I wouldn't call that a cheat. The Mine Damage Dodge is when the chaff takes 4/5 of the damage but since it only has 20 or 45 dp armor the rest of the damage magically disappears ...

It's neither an abuse of the knowledge of damage allocation, if it was than using fleets of 5 ships "as usual" would be the same kind of abuse.
