Heck, you could even use it to attack through an enemy's square to another enemy, as you one can't provide one's allies with cover versus melee attacks, only ranged attacks. enemies don't provide cover to other enemies where ranged attacks are concerned either. this is all in effort to get rid of the precise shot feat tax.

Your allies never grant cover to your enemies, and neither allies nor enemies give cover against melee, close, or area attacks. See page 280 of the PHB
