Or perhaps people should just stop thinking that there's a safe way to up from a field that is already overrun by enemy forces. The field defenses are dead, VH is down, GVs are scarce, and the skies are full of red icons - and yet, you still want some way to fight back a battle that is clearly, already lost?
Think from the attacker's point of view. Sometimes they have it easy by relying on the mindless horde and their lackeys. But other times, base suppression/captures are a result of well-laid planning and excellent skill. They work their prettythang off to subdue an enemy field with minimal amount of pilots.. and then bam! - the tards start rolling insta-field acks by upping buffs on the runway. 20x .50 barrels just popping up from nowhere via one buff formation... with just two tards resorting to that kind of 'defense' with two bomber formations they gain access to some forty .50 guns that are much tougher in durability than the average field ack.
That's lame.
That's why it went the way of the dodo in AH.
