Agreed on same delivery port being possible.. but that RoRo holds way more than a month of US BRZ and FRS, which means other Subarus - not Toyotas. And that means Subaru likely isn't going to change their distribution. It'll stop at the port they use for Subarus, and for the FR-S either another stop at a port used by Toyota or Toyota will just handle a new distribution pattern for the FR-S.
Toyota does basically own Subaru so who knows, but changing logistics for say, 3,000 random Subarus for 500 BRZs just doesn't make much sense. Making a logistics changes for 1,000 or whatever FRS makes more sense.
