I only mentioned night as this special rule does show up more often in scenarios with late night/early morning settings. In point of fact, a quick persual of Guad shows only a handful of scenarios using this rule at all. It's almost as if the rule applies to troops who are quite new to the jungle. I didn't see anything after September '42.
As I review, Guadalcanal does say that but Saipan and Kokoda do not. So, this may be a very small but important difference between the old and new rules for jungle terrain. Personally, I like the disorientation all the time, it is a bit more restricting but you can still move there if you dare.
