What are spies if not intel gathering ships? What are intel gathering ships if not spies? Confused

To me, a spy implies a level of cloak-and-dagger type of operation, where the enemy is attempting to hide the spy. Sending a ship to ping a starbase isn't spying - you're making it clear that you're there, for heaven's sake. That's like sending a solder up to to the fort and knocking on the front door. Of course he's going to get killed, but (1) he'll be able to send intel back before he dies (which is a little odd, to be honest) and (2) both parties know he's there.

I think the trouble is attributing spying to pinging. To me, they're not the same. Spying is having a 98% cloaked pen scan a few ly from a planet.

Cheers,
Void

If people are willing to declare war over a few uncloaked scouts, then surely they would also do so over a few cloaked scouts. My point stands.
