While on Distant Worlds 2, my wife fell behind due to throwing out her back.
We'd talked about having her just multi-crew with me but realized there's very little exploration wise for her to do. She'd effectively just be there to point out "oh, that place looks nifty, we should go look at it" and to take pictures. Allowing a mult-crew member access to FSS would give them something constructive to do while out in the black.
Given that in a wing, we share FSS data already, allowing shared FSS for members of a multi-crew ship wouldn't unbalance things much at all, and it'd give it a purpose during exploration beyond saying "hey, look at this" or "go take my fighter out in that canyon over there."
