Hi,
This is standard system behaviour, see below extract from documentation:
Standard Purchase Order Quantity
Quantity of the material that is normally ordered from this vendor.
Use
The standard purchase order quantity serves as a basis
for computing the effective prices in vendor evaluation.
for determining the price if a price/quantity scale applies
Example: standard quantity 100 pcs.
    Scale prices: 1-100 pcs. $10.00/ 101-200 pcs. $8.00
    Price determined on basis of standard quantity: $10.00
Dependencies
The standard quantity may not be less than the minimum order quantity.
I fail to understand why would you have any problems with the fact that the minimum order quantity must be less than the standard quantity.
Maybe it is because you interpret Standard order quantity as standard package quantity!
