the skill you are looking for is laboratory operation and advanced laboratory operation, as far as "running" jobs

if you mean queueing jobs then no thanks, the value of the bpc is derived from the difficulty of keeping many un-queue-able jobs running, if it was queue able then the bpc price will just crash down into mats cost+lab time and be not worth doing

You are about to engage in an arguement with a forum alt,  this is your final warning.

Honestly, we should just get rid of BPCs. Invention and copying should both be much more difficult than they are currently, but a successful job should be one fully functional blueprint (there are no more copies/originals, just blueprints. You can make stuff from them and research them to be more efficient, just like BPOs are currently.)

The copying system is superfluous.

Whether or not you win the game matters not.  It's if you bought it.

tell that to the people making supercaps in stationless systems in null
or the people making caps in stationless systems in null/low
or anyone cooking small batches of anything in dangerous space, even BC BPO are ~400m unresearched, id rather lose BPC in a cooker than BPO on just about ANYTHING

if your idea was implement you can only have BPO in the cooker, if you dont want to lose 100bn bpo and 100bn in mats dont make titans. I for 1 prefer to have BPC in the cookers vs. losing 9000$ worth of isk in a pos. Copies have their place and are highly useful

your idea would also invalidate billions of skill points across hundreds of thousands of characters, what use is science V? and may other skills that suddenly get wiped out


if you want to run with only BPO there is a solution for you, buy them, they already exist.
