Cancel Orders?
What do "Cancel Orders for Friendly Combat Unit" and "Cancel Orders for Enemy Combat Unit" mean in Preferences?

I think they are for goto orders. Cancelling such orders when your units get close to enemy units, can save them from getting killed.

Your multi-turn move will be canceled if (other non-enemy civ / enemy civ) combat unit comes adjacent (not just 'within view').

Aaah, thank you wise one.
I assume most everyone leaves this on, then?

Call ME wise, will you!? 
Your remarks regarding "ways to make the AI more aggressive" were quite well stated*..., especially compared to the ramblings I often do when typing more than two or three lines.
*Thanks for the reminders
