Cloak Penalty for Laboratories

"... lab analysis of a faded/ cloaked ship is treated under the penalties of a direct-fire weapon."
The penalty alluded to above is +4 to range and damage -50% for a fully-cloaked ship. If a ship is under cloak do labs suffer +4 range- as well as the 50% penalty?
even though technically they are delivering no damage?
e.g. Ship is under cloak and labs are range 2 from target. Basic lab points are 8 at this range. Range (2+4) lab points = 2, - 50% = 1 lab point.

That sounds reasonable to me. Yes, it is somewhat ambiguous, but your application of what we have is perfectly reasonable.

Let's go with it.

Again, thank you for the clarifications
