Hello,

1: Most of the points I've presented are limitations / descriptions of the ID
2: IDs owned on the server: 5 (if the ID is not sold in RED station, thus available to everyone)
3: All I asked is an objective consideration of the ID in the current and future economy. Smuggling was always mid-tier income with some exceptions - Xeno Relics and Cardamine (Cardamine run by Junkers/Freelancer or anyone else who can dock in any Liberty base and carry something back on the return). The rest of the illegal commodities were high risk-mid tier reward. Mining and legal trading were always high-end pay - mid risk if not low risk. Currently, the market is not screaming for XR. And Cardamine is mid tier income for a trip Omi-Alpha > Texas with BM Pharma return, I'll make a profit of 670K top after flying 1 hour.
4: This is the only counter-counter-argument I'll make, more because I do want this ID improved than its current state: Lawful 5kers can't smuggle by definition - this applies to factions only and a few players who take RP too serious. Most have indie 5kers with which they smuggle - and smuggling is not restricted to illegal commodities, it can include breaching an embargo (see Dublin Gold), carrying restricted cargo (Light Arms). For everything else regarding trading, see point 3.
5: The ID itself is of no use at this moment (with the exception of events or player requests), and if the illegal commodities don't increase in price/route, will continue to be so. It doesn't matter I can dock in Omicron Mu on the Wild base, if I travel 30 minutes to get there with the entire server chasing me for a profit of 100-200K. I'll just switch to an indie 5ker or Zoner 5ker.
