I am using the v11.01-DL version of the game.

Can the nearby company HQ ever provide a *negative* modifier, if their skills are lower than the subordinate unit? If yes, then I'll have to make sure my company HQ units either get experience and improve, or keep them well away from the front lines.

That's because you are using the 2017 version of the game and those were added in 2018

Any leader in the unit's command chain can "coach" subordinates to hit, never negatively. So tank A may get a little boost (not much) on rare occasions when the platoon, company or battle group HQ is within 3 hexes or so. If all 3 were close by, he has 3 "bosses" who could do that.

But it is probably not worth going all OCD on putting the HQs (other than maybe the platoon) all bunched up at the front just for a rare 1-3% or so lift in hit%.
