It is a wast of Isk to have to demolish a building, if I just want to add another building for a short time, then go back to using it, because the Power from the command centre is not enough. Give us the an on and off button for each building please. Further and on and off button for "Links" as well.

It's possibly intentional as an isk sink, you pays your money and makes your choice...

PI needs reworking as a whole though, any piecemeal changes would be useful but ultimately pointless. Better to concentrate the developer time for the multitude of small fixes required and do a full properly designed rework.

Plan better. PI is about planning and flow, and low risk isk. Work for it, think about things first. Like you're supposed to when you come up with ideas. If i did what you suggest properly, I could shut down factories and extractors to power up more storage without the cost and my location requirements.

The balance of such things are planned so that you have to be there to change things around, and if you have to be away and still expect to make isk, you plan for much more storage.

Use the force without consent and the court wont acquit you even if you are a card carryin', robe wearin' Jedi.

An entire planet costs but a few million to set up. Moving a few buildings around is such a trivially small amount of isk that I cannot possibly believe it matters.
