Whilst I understand your point here OP the parallels to RL just go to show that it's more about how people behave dynamically that makes eve what it is today. And those don't generally change. Just for a while let's suppose it did? I doubt very much it would resolve the issues faced with intense server lag. Any kind of large power block would have to be dispatched quickly, which necessitates large battles.
Even if there were simply a war between two alliances, what's to stop another alliance coming along for extra kills, which has started happening more and more lately, ala the recent 9UY battle and the previous delve campaign. Large fleet battles are integral to eve, and large wars are caused by large densities of players, not macro-politics. They will always arise somewhere.
Let's face it; the limiting factor for these fights is not about how many blues you have or how many dreads are required to counter how many supers. The eve player base will ALWAYS push hardware to the limit, not because they should but because they CAN. Hardware is the limiting factor, but no matter how much CCP specs up, players will always stretch what they can to breaking limit. There will always be another HED-GP.


I don't agree fully with you. I think if the coalitions are way smaller or even nonexistent the fights would be overall much smaller.
But i agree that CCP needs to introduce mechanics that will spread fleets across few systems around a region in order to achieve a goal. And ofc the code needs to be refreshed.

If all the HED threads are being locked and redirected dev blog feedback - why is this one still open?

Because this one is not a call for CCP to do miracles. It is a call for players to stop being sheep.
