OP: Horrible idea, for the reasons already stated. And if you like analogies, well, in javelin and a ton of sports if you step over the line, you are disqualified. Luckily Eve is neither MMA or javelin.

actually make that POS style bubble, no need to lock them in
even that way the pilots can SEE the border, and it will be obvious that leaving the bubble means instant death

as it is the border seems far too much of a surprise to the player, as they clearly have no visible line they cross, it's just one range number on a tab somewhere they need to watch, which isnt the best system.

having a visible bubble, just the visual effect, it would work excactly the same as now, but it would be much more intuitive and visual

as it should be, however i feel like there should be a visible line there :)

at the moment the GM can see the line, but the player in the arena cant...

Yeah, an actual warp disruption bubble would also serve as a visible boundary.

in a game where your actiions have consequences, I prefer explosions for violations

Fanfest next year...

Chess boxing with Alliance tournament boundary rules where ccp sreegs gets to shoot someone if they leave the ring...

I'd pay to see that.

Something more akin to a "acid pool" I think would be better. Massive damage over time but not instant death.
