This looks like the unit is trying to reach the center (purple dot) of target, rather than to clip the boundary. Stingers have elevated midpoint, and things like Scythes and Fleas simply don't have enough range to reach the midpoint from ground.
Probably an engine issue?
The units do have targetBorder=1 and they used to work previously without getting touched. Looks like engine.
dirtbags do not even headbutt lotus. http://zero-k.info/Battles/Detail/433325
Mantis 5457 reports fixed and my own testing indicates likewise.

I've seen this issue with AIs as well, where scythes/jacks will walk up to a stinger, attack it once or not at all and then sit there doing nothing until they get killed.
EDIT: I've also seen this happen with fleas and dirtboxes vs mexes. I think it may also be related to another issue I've observed with bandits and scorchers where they stutter when shooting causing them to either shoot very slowly or not at all in certain situations.
