You know, I really wish the radar was actually useful for telling distance

It's impossible to tell if you're on top of something or it's right in front of you by the damn radar, wish it gave better reference for distance to your ship.
 
From my point of view all they'd have to do is stop the scanner range changing automatically. You still wouldn't know if an object was 500m or 500km away but at least it would be constant, so the middle of the scanner would always be the same distance assuming you didn't change the range setting manually.
 
Change it to linear scale - the default is logarithmic.

Can't remembe rwhere the setting is, but it exists, pretty sure it's one of the in-ship options.

I agree. The auto scaling reduces the functionality of the "radar".
