They won't. The idea is to "encourage" you to move into a player-made citadel.

Just get standings in the NPC station.
Refining tax amount hasn't been changed, so you can get to 0% tax in an NPC station all you want.
Citadels compete by offering greater refine amounts than an NPC station, even if it is obviously biased despite equal effort being needed for a citadel in all areas of space, it still competes vs NPC stations just fine in all areas.

I don't think you guys see the issue with isk tax.

It's taken from estv something that is off from the true cake value a variable amount meaning each day your tax actually changes. Sometimes on a5% tax you can be paying 6-7 other times 3-4 but with minerals 5% of the veld is always 5% of the veld. Variable taxes are bad in any system. This was also not done to get ppl to refine in citadels or was done because ccp thought owners were to lazy to deal with minerals. The best option would have been keep it minerals in NPC and then let the citadel owner choose isk or minerals
