I did report this bug earlier using 2.4.3 (public beta) but I guess it got overlooked? Simply, the bug is that naval movement is incorrectly reduced by 1 MP whenever there's an enemy opportunity to intercept, whether or not they choose to try, AND the moving naval force continues on to another sea area.

Take the RN heavy cruiser in Trincomalee for example. If I move it directly to the Bay of Bengal and choose not to move further then it can go the 4-box. However, if after a declined or unsuccessful intercept attempt, if I choose to continue on and move it the adjacent West Indian Ocean, I can only get it to the 2-box.

Option 19: (In the presence of the enemy) It costs a surface naval unit 2 points of its movement allowance (not range) to enter a sea area that contains a CV (with a carrier plane), SCS or aircraft unit controlled by an unsurprised (see 15.) major power it is at war with. This does not apply (i.e. you pay normal costs) if, at the start of the impulse, the sea area contained a friendly:
ï CV with a carrier plane; or
ï SCS; or
ï aircraft unit.
It also doesn’t apply to a naval unit returning to base nor if the only enemy units attempting to slow you down are aircraft during storm or blizzard.

Well, I suddenly gave it a second thought... and no, because there are friendly units. Were they there att the start of the impulse?
