BST adjustment did not address the problem, Devs please read

Right, but if you stand within 7 yalms of your pet, directly behind your pet who is directly behind the monster which is being held by a tank or a trust tank, why wouldn't that work? I understand that depending on the size of the mob you may have to be less than 7 yalms from your pet but from the posts here it sounds like bst is unable to position their monster behind the enemy and I am wondering why that is the case?

Because it's completely broken. Recently I've been on top of my pet and it still wouldn't fire off because one of the 6 mobs attacking it wasn't in range despite it being as close as it could get but other mobs blocking it's way. Plus if just standing behind the monster is fine for bst then it's fine for real melees so might as well use those instead

There are many fights where multiple enemies appear. Lets take dominion as an example. The primary dragon will quite often reposition itself, and our pets will on their own reposition as well, quite often moving out of the tight 7 yalm range. So you trying to hit ready, or reward, and its not working - your not sure what the problem is at first - dominion lag, range, etc. Then with the adds pop out the pet can bounce just about anywhere.

I suspect that a slight adjustment of the range from 7 yalms to 10 yalms would solve nearly all the problems - the master would still be in the fight (this is the stated goal of SE), but the pet has a slightly longer leash to do its thing.
