bug with DEF - LOST display when HQ surrender

I have attacked 1 mtn div in an hex also containing an army HQ. The infantry div retreated and the army HQ surrendered. But the LOST men numbers show the same numbers as the DEF men, which doesn't make sense. And I have seen this behavior in a few other cases

I think non-combatants are not included in fighting totals, which later breaks loss totals (I think they are capped at initial strength).

Ok, I see. So I understand there is no solution to this problem then? Well more annoyance than a real problem. Thanks

Some rework needed, not for next patch, that I would like to wrap up. Take into account previously HQ would not be listed on battle report at all.

Yes I know. No problem, I'm a programmer, I know some things might be way more complicated than it looks. And as I said, it's more an annoyance than a real problem.
I know the HQ's appear in the destroyed units window, but does it mean that the HQ men lost are also not counted correctly in the ground losses screen? That is a little more important or at least, very good to know.
