Even if you bump in to Capitol when exiting trade line , you will stay alive if you have any armor stonger than dirty cheep x1.9 .

Say you got a snub group chasing a target in a bigger fight. You tell one of the big caps on your side to sit at the end of another tradelane and wait for you to fly through.
IF it is positioned right and shoots the lane after you exit all the following snubs will be thrown out at the exact same place at the lane, ramming into the ship and loosing tons of regens.
You have a bigger chance to win a lottery than to kill a snub by placing it self on its trajectory and hoping snub pilot is blind of AFK ( in which case you can kill it with mortar anyway ) .

Apart from that this wouldnt solve the problem in the slightest. Ships still would get bumped, just that they have the ability to instakill everything below a VHF by simply touching it.
No , even LF with x2.1 armor will survive , dint you read what i have wrote ? There will be no insta-killing !
Even if by some miracle snub bump in to not-moving Capitol , it will survive ,and it will take ANOTHER bump to kill already damaged snub if pilot is incompetent enough to NOT use bits or to not be able to move away with its 200 km/s speed from that 90/km/s fast carrier that chase him !
