Parry property protrudes past Abrams shoulder charge

As Abrams, when shoulder charging an enemy which is currently parrying, the parry property remains.
That means that if you shoulder charge -> melee into a parrying enemy, you will be parried as long as the melee occurs within the parry window.

Two things happens, and how to replicate:

1) Be an enemy and parry
2) As Abrams, shoulder charge the enemy, preferrably close to a wall to make sure you quickly get the stun.
3) Then these two things happens:
3a) if a teammate melees the enemy during the shoulder charge (before the wall stun occurrs), he will be parried. This might be by design as during the shoulder charge, the enemy might not have a stun property.
3b) when the enemy gets stunned by the wall as the result of the shoulder charge, quickly light melee, and you will be parried. The same applies for heavy melee, but parry window might have expired in the meantime.
This can be further proven when considering that it should technically be impossible to re-parry after getting shoulder charged due to the parry lockout window.

I would assume that the intent is that the parry window should be nullified completely when the enemy obtains the stun property as a result of the shoulder charge into a wall.
