Well when CCP's opinion aligns with yours, then I'm sure the threadnaughts will be up and the subs will be down. Until then you can ignore it, accept it or do something about it.

There is no one click mining with multiboxing with Isboxer or otherwise (unless using botting software, which is not multiboxing, its botting). Say you're mining with 10 miners. 3 miner end a roid, so you stop their strip miner, and start them on a new roids, which now stopped 7 other miners from mining and now you have 10 miners with some strips mining and some not.

With multiboxing you still need to manually re-start each strip on a miner unless you're doing some awful unefficent setup like all miners mining the same roid and waiting for all cycles to end before starting a new one; which would be seriously awful ore yields.

or just mine in WH space where the rocks are much much bigger.

Youll have other issues to contend with though...
