What does your system "fix"?
DeeZire's Mine Layer can't reload itself, yours has infinite ammo. DeeZire's Mine Layer heals itself, yours can dodge anti-vehicle warheads by deploying. DeeZire's Mines cloak surrounding objects, yours are a barrier to both the enemy's and your own units.
Your system has different problems than DeeZire's. But it's not better, because it's got the same amount of problems. Even more, the fact that your mines can't be passed by your own units I'd consider far worse than the mines' cloak being a little too extended. (Plus, the extra undeploy your system needs is an extra factor of micro-management that can pose a problem in an actual combat situation.)
And about the ConYard flag: That doesn't change the fact that the AI sees it as a ConYard (you told it it's one, after all) and will coordinate it's actions accordingly. It fucks up the AI.
P.S.: There's still the InfantryMutation method.
P.P.S.: Errr....can your mine...move??
