PSA: Mass POB Migration, other POB info

[DSE-]

Is there a coherent reasoning behind POB migration?
This is a big change with its own pros and cons.
It doesn't fix many of the core POB issues but instead looks like a one-sided solution to somebody's grievance.

I am not opposed to change, and one such as the 5.0 release is a massive amount at one time. I do, however, wonder about the reasoning behind POB changes. Moving mining fields means moving POBs to fairly compensate the disadvantaged POB owners.

Moving and mandating POBs be moved from their approved placement and layout is not fair nor reasonable. Long Island is not in the way of any movement around Manhattan. Albany PA could be mildly realigned for ascetics' sake, but isn't a problem overall. Same as the cluster of POBs around New London. I think the purpose-built and properly RP'd trinity of Lab Reactor POBs in the stacked format is a feature of that system and a historical one at that. They should remain as they are if the owner so desires.

So who is pushing this ideologically driven mandate? And why? Fair questions.
