NPC disruption should stay, at least it makes it a little more inconvenient to AFK F2 trade.

In fact, I am a strong proponent of there always being one route through a system (where two parallel trade lane networks exist) with a big chance of being NPC trade lane disrupted.

I believe it's actually good for RP, instead of detrimental, even with the laughably weak NPCs... I have hired a few new players as escorts several times, knowing fully there are actually no pirates ahead because nobody was in the systems I was going to, but we could still RP around my transport being stopped by NPC pirates and them "defending" me.

They got some credits for popping a few NPCs, didn't have a boring trip and hopefully learnt a thing or two about RP.

This is how PvE can still be good for roleplay, instead of everyone always complaining about NPCs "ruining" their RP. I really think there should be more "predefined" PvE RP zones outside missions. There's plenty of empty, unused space, do we really need to have all of it for PvP RP interaction?
