I can say you so because I was trading today most of my day and even now when Im on my other ship there are people going around ad trading stuff, mining buying selling etc. So in my opinion the only things that have to be done now are delete this thread and begin to deal with thing how they are now and as they will be from now on.
I personally got the feeling that you are afraid if things change!
Anecdotal. The fact that traders still exist doesn't mean they have a reason to. Any player looking at the numbers is going to notice that it isn't worthwhile to trade if all you want to do is make money, and will cease doing so, as I have - unless they're just seriously averse to TS'ing caps or just really love powertrading for the fun of it.
I think it would be very difficult to argue that solo missiongrinding in a single system with basically no risk or effort should equal the profit of powertrading ore, but I think it's impossible to argue that it should exceed the profit as it currently does.
