Currently you can get your shiny toy without effort, you don't need to RP, you need cash. The people here proposing "caps for SRPs" are actually proposing a system where you become special by proving you are "better" in roleplaying your stuff and not only that you got the billion for the Neph.
TL;DR - It's quite the opposite than what you said, so I really don't get your logic here.
I'd disagree, the SRP's don't prove you are "better" only that you've put effort into attaining something beyond collecting money. If that SRP is accepted, to me it's an agreement to maintain that level of effort in order to keep it.
As for the Zoner battleships, I don't think putting them behind the SRP line will promote more RP and interactions, if anything it'll cause more hassle for the admin team. I feel it'd be a better idea to tone down the ships or convert them into colony liners as suggested, it'd be a one time change with the same effect as an SRP.
However this shouldn't be a singular event applied only to the Zoner ships, it must be an overall change to all capital ships otherwise we run the risk of descrimination.
