I am not sure about. Not being a sailor, I will defer to those who are, but I imagine a captain would have some idea about attitude towards wind; that might not be true of players, and since players are mimicking being captains …

Of course, variable wind will modify one's plans, but during movement aren't we thinking ahead several moves (based on the attitude at the moment), so re-checking during the planning phase seems unnecessary.
