I think a check should be made for that sort of situation: abort a defensive spell if other friendly units are too close.
Breath of Winter is a problematic spell as it is both defensive and passivly offensive (Soul Vortex is another). AOE makes it even more difficult as it can be rather large and random. Script mages and place them prudently.

Other option: Should BoW be a spell never or rarely cast unless scripted?
