I don't think that there's any decision to be made about interception
when a fleet is driven out of port---I read 6.2.6.1 as jumping straight
to the combat if the player who owns the fleet so chooses. So I don't
agree that Mike could have let the fleets pass by.

Hence I'm inclined to say that 6.3.1.1 doesn't give any guidance in
this case, since no one is phasing or intercepting.
