Do you guys not know that that is exactly what a Picard maneuver is? Seemingly being in two positions at once?

The Picard Maneuver was born out of desperation during the battle. The Stargazer, which was damaged, suddenly accelerated into high warp directly towards the Ferengi ship. By doing so the Stargazer appeared to ship's sensors, for an instant, to be in two places at once.

Fair enough.

Although I'd call it the Picard tug or something, perhaps. Huehue

Cool to know, I really didn't before. Nice catch!
