I plan on flying almost exclusively minmatar ships for my prefered playstyle. At my current SP score (5.3m), what should I do? Keep crosstraining or just reroll with minnie's default starters?

Don't reroll. Train support skills, then crosstrain.

It's always better to continue with the current character. You may not use the skills now, but you might change your mind later as you find your EVE interests changing.

When I finally do make an impact on this universe, it will reverberate across the entirety of it, and no one will be able to truthfully claim they don't know me. - -

Until then, I'll just sit quietly over here, minding my own business...

This. Before remapping was introduced, it was possible to have a terrible stat layout that wasn't amenable to cross training (or even training anything tbh). Now there are really only two reasons to start up a new character: you have an awful name or you need to keep a clone cheap.

One of the best features of eve is you never have to reroll. Unless a rp type who really needs to be 100% authenticate pure blood/skill to meet some sick need to be in character....never reroll. Many skills suck learning twice....you will see this one day if/when you roll alts lol.

At the very least sell yourself and start over with a little coin to show for it.

(I'd recommend getting a few million more sp if you want to do it though, otherwise you'll probably loose isk in the process)
