Good idea. Orbit is a real pain, but I realised the other day that perhaps the reason you have orbit is because of the limited number of people the tower can host.
I've found quite often that I can't join a friend's fire team, even though they are in the tower because it's full. So I have to wait until they go to orbit or someone leaves the tower.
As such, orbit acts as the only assured way to be able to join a fire team, especially prevalent when forming a team for a raidor if the servers are busy.
Pretty poor networking imho.

You can join session in progress MOST of the time and so it would be better if you don't have to go to orbit unless you have to. The loading times on the game are really quite long and so it would be better to avoid having to go to orbit if you don't need to and as strikes start in the patrol zones then it makes sense that you could start a strike from a patrol zone.
