With such a short radius where you cannot anchor depots and such, every hub station is going to become absolutely swarmed with these things, and since you have to go suspect and wait 2 days, killing them becomes dangerous and a pain.

Increase the unanchorable distance to 1 AU, to prevent these things from being on grid at all.

Why exactly would you want to anchor a spaceyurt (or any of the other deployables for that matter) on a station?

There are a number of reasons including

1) They are cheap so you can just spam them on jita undock just to clutter up overviews
2) If you duel in highsec, you can anchor them all over to refit mid fight/refit to stabs incase you get bumped
3) Unkillable for days advertisement for your corp/serve
4) Global warpins (insta undocks, depots that you can warp to after you warp to station @100, and then land right next to the station)

Gates have many of the same problems, and in addition, it allows people to bypass the main balancing factor behind ecm when supporting a gatecamp.

200km still allows you to spam grid with them.

then 600km, whatever. Not 150,000,000 km.

You realize spamming a grid with anything is considered an exploit?

No its not. Causing lag is an exploit.

That's what spamming something does, causes lag :)

Although you have a valid point, they can also not be anchored with-in a certain distance for another of the same type, that should limit it somewhat.
