(overlords can also use a gatestone in any fashion that won't trigger a battle because theres no way to police something that is private and undetectable...)

I know belac probably wanted a stricter rule but i don't think there is a way to police a rule that involves friendly nonbattle movements because its totally private

I was just tossing out ideas. Rdonj seems to want to create a Cold War-flavor game where extremely powerful nations still have reason to coexist with and ally with vastly weaker ones, and severe movement restrictions on the overlords would provide one. Even simpler than what you suggested would be to just forbid overlords from moving into a non-friendly province except via gatestone, but allow them to gatestone anywhere.
