Remote Sebo Fighters?

So awhile ago they "nerfed" fighters by reducing their scan res, so after you have your target locked and you set them to agro it takes the fighters awhile to actually start hitting because they have to lock the target themselves.

Would it work to remote sebo the fighters so they would lock and engage faster? I do not have a way to test this myself so I was wondering if anyone had any insight on this.

You realise you're going to have 5+ fighters and not enough resebos for them all

Like most problems in EVE, this can be solved with enough newbies in frigates

If you were to get enough people to sacrifice their time to do this I foresee a rapid change to the fighters ability to receive external assistance should it become common place.

I doubt it TBH - If it takes five newbies to let a carrier do what it did before the change (2 ReSebos each assuming it's even that efficient) that's probably more costly than it's worth - especially if you consider that you could throw them Derptrons or Incursuses and they could tackle, probably deal more damage over a protracted fight than the fighters lose from locking and squeal more on comms...
