Bocage Update
My Q&A to MMP about LOS into a Bocage Location from a non-adjacent hex has returned. My interpretation was unfortunately wrong, and the Bocage article will be updated accordingly. Here is the text of the Q&A:
Q. B9.521: A Location with a Bocage hexside has no units with WA present within it. Can that Location be seen (ie, "seen into") from a non-adjacent same-level unit across that Bocage hexside? Could an entrenchment within that Location be seen from a non-adjacent same-level unit across that Bocage hexside?
A. Yes to both.

I still think B9.521 is poorly written, but there it is. Thus, a unit in a Bocage Location can only be seen from a non-adjacent unit if it has WA, but an entrenchment in the Bocage Location could be seen from that non-adjacent unit. This is similar to the situation with walls/hedges where a unit in an entrenchment behind a wall/hedge cannot be seen from a non-adjacent unit but the entrenchment itself can be seen (see B9.21, especially its second example). With Bocage though, this applies even if the unit isn't even in the entrenchment, as long as it doesn't have WA.
