Isnt is so that "everything" has the give button?
It may likelly just been a design feature where it saved Chris/Keith on achieving the same but with 3 times as much code having to be processed on the go.

Possibly, but the calculation on how many of the selected units can be given is wrong. You can't give command stations, but it says: "Can be given: 1/1"

What kind and Mk lvl of command station were you trying to give? You cannot give something to a player when the other player has not researched or unlocked it. (There are exceptions for unbuildable stuff, like golems)

It was an under construction Mk1 Econ station.

Under construction? That brings up a good question. Are things that are under construction supposed to be giftable?

In any case, the 1/1 can be given display was wrong. Whether it is a bug in the gifting or a bug in the "giftable count" is to be determined.

I didn't check a fully built station, that one died rather soon after and my ally recolonized it (when I colonized it it was a mistake, I had meant to gift the colony ship).
