I very much disagree with this in the case of quasi-lawfuls. Sadly, they have been so underplayed, and piracy used on them so little that people don't even realize that this is the intent of the IDs - shady factions that will trade with you, hell even potentially protect you from unlawfuls in House space in the case of hogosha and Corse. But then stab you in the back by taking your stuff in the wild west non-house systems, and try to play the dangerous game of not overdoing it to be outed in-house.
It is entirely on the target factions to set their diplomacy towards the quasi-lawfuls and try to collect evidence, FR5s. But from Corse/Hogosha/Junker perspective they always play the dangerous game where they try to have a neutral front with as many factions as possible while stabbing them in the back by robbing them in wild west systems and helping their enemies in-house, smuggling etc, if it suits their self-serving interests is my 2 cents.
