Reassigning Axis AA SUs from Soviet cities should only cost 1 AP

Let me preface this by stating that my current strategy for the air war revolves around using cities and towns as the main airbases for my planes. This is because AA SUs attached directly to cities and towns (and urban, but planes do not fly from there)have 2x more effectiveness as well as shooting at aircraft that flies overhead, e.g. if you position your other airfields behind the town in the path of the enemy planes, you will protect these a bit as well.

But one big flaw of this strategy is that unassigning the AA SUs from the cities once the front moves is really, really expensive in AP, since the game counts them as if you move AA SUs away from German cities. But the Germans shouldn't care about leaving a Soviet city defenseless. Hence I think that with a future update, the Axis should only have to pay 1 AP for unassgning AA SUs from Soviet cities.

The extra points cost is meant to reflect the harm to the nation from not offering protection to the homeland. This argument does not apply to conquered territories.
