Probably won't help prevent it but the squad creation problem is an odd issue caused by a few things.

The root of the cause is that if for example you create a custom squad called CHARLIE but are the 2nd squad to do it (BRAVO) then the HUD things that because there is a CHARLIE squad there should be another. Of course when the 3rd squad wants to be created it also wants to be CHARLIE so stops it from happening.
This combined with auto team swapping etc causes it to show more frequently. As you have said it is annoying and needs a server restart to get it working again.
