To follow your arguments you think it would be right to force YOU to go to Iraq or Afghanistan so that someone else could have fun with you in RL? Not everyone will participate into all aspects of EVE. So you should not try to force them.

Granted this example is much to exaggerated, but I just wanted to show that it is wrong (in RL and in Game) to force someone into something he does not want but only brings fun for other players.
What was the main idea of a sandbox? Do what you like? Or was it do what I tell you?
If you do want to impose everyone to take part into PvP, even if he just want to unhitch from RL and just have fun with eve, you will soon have ONLY PvP.
A few miners -> even less producer-> some trader etc.

You really want to mine in your battleship, refine the ore and build your needed ships allone because it is too easy to kill all other branches?

It is wrong that EVE is 100% PvP. If this would be you wouldnt be able to mine, build or trade.
