If you pirate for the sake of RP/fun, you won't waste 10 minutes chasing that trader.
Oh, if he does ooRP stuff, does not mean you should do it too.
If the chase is exciting, why not? How is that only about money? You also have plenty of time to talk the trader, to try some psychological approach. It all makes it interesting. I know a pirate who convinced a trader to turn around after few hundred clicks.
Why should advanced flying techniques be considered ooRP?
Also from what I've heard most pirates will follow the trader to the very end anyway.
