The issue is that a friendly or allied fleet must be at the start of the 
supply line.  Therefore unless both ends are valid supply sources or 
connected to a valid supply source by another link, it does matter which 
end the fleet is on.

I don't think this is the way we've been seeing it before, but Joel brought 
up a valid point that we have been blurring the sea supply rules a bit.

On the fleet issue, the Denmark fleet is usable for British reinforcement 
as sea supply requires a friendly or allied fleet and there is an alliance 
between Britain and Prussia.
