From EntitySimLogicImplementation:

            if ( Entity.GetMatches( EntityRollupType.HasAnyMetalFlows ) &&
                 Entity.DataForMark.AssistRange > 0 &&
                 !Entity.TypeData.IsCombatant )
            {
                this.AttackerLogic_Assister( Context, Entity, order, guarded );
            }

Puffin changed combat engineers to be considered a combatant (probably so that they would be included in dragbox selection), but this means they run this.AttackerLogic_Combat instead of this.AttackerLogic_Assister.

There should be some other way of differentiating between them, maybe replace the IsCombatant check with a "NoOffensiveWeapons" check.

Battlestations were also switched to be a combatant, I wonder if this affects them in any way.

I really don't like battlestations being combatants. I keep inadvertently sending them to enemy planets with my fleets.

I made the reverse complaint a while ago when they were civilians, that they were part of my attack group and that I kept forgetting them behind. Particularly grating since without control groups you can't hotkey together all fleets that participate in the attack without losing the ability to hotkey them individually.
