Better AOE offensive mutation AI for followers

From experience, it seems such AI already exists, but it’s not foolproof - you can be in a follower’s disintegration range, for example, long enough and they’ll use it if any hostile creatures are in it. The same can be said for Quills; they won’t use quill fling at first, but eventually will whether or not you’re adjacent to them. This makes these AOE mutations very risky to use early game on followers (in my case, Gru-wof-ufo, loyal snapjaw retainer) not to mention there’s always the chance of the AOE hitting neutral or friendly enemies nearby. Having the AOE attack always only target cells that contain hostile enemies would make such mutations viable on followers.
