Logistics is already too easy as it is, hence why everyone can easily get to jita to do their shopping instead of encouraging local markets.
Also, I'll sell you any amount of freighters you want for only 2b each. Yeah, I'm nice like that.


Agree with this statement.

It's all about the grand scheme of things and actually if some regions are out of good trade stations it's only because moving goods is far too easy.
This is not good for other regions than high sec because null sec production prices are high due to several risk factors.

Moving goods in high sec is already far too easy.

Moving HUGE amounts of goods from null to high sec is already way too easy

ORCA is the light stronger hauler you can use in high sec and can carry huge amounts of stuff or isk.

Moving goods from high sec to null sec is a piece of cake with Jump freighters and alts.

It's probably the industry point that is in need of a good shake.
While I agree industrial ships are in need of a buff on EHP, align/warp, resist profile and probably some cargo, add more ships when you already have far more options than are needed would be silly.
