Possible exception being nomad systems. Npc gunboats simply troll snubs and transports in highly unpleasant ways.

Well, don't you think that as a smuggler/unlawful trader you shouldn't fly past the station and planet areas that contain such patrols, as well as through trade lanes, or at least have enough wits to avoid their attention if you do so?

Peace, being the distant dream it is, comes inevitably, and goes hand in hand with justice.

Lawfuls should do that, and there's already sufficient defences through turrets to prevent loitering.

We also should encourage unlawfuls to stick relatively near to lawful escorts so police players have a chance of catching them.

Stop flying through secure zones then? Gunboat npcs don't spawn in the wild.

They do spawn in Omega-58, though.

Remove them from all NPCs, and remove them from the Nomad platforms. This stuff doesn't enhance the game at all, it's just irritating.

No. You can't even disrupt the nomad lanes.

The thread is heresy from the very beginning. Don't poke your hand into a bee hive if you don't want to get bitten.

Then we make Nomad lanes disrupt-able.

Can you fully outline your point as to why invincible CD platforms with infinite ammo is good for gameplay?

Because they slow you down. You're not supposed to roam around in the nomad systems without threat. Those things provide a threat. They provide more time for the nomad playerbase to react. They also, in some areas, slow down ships and allow hard NPC patrols to take on them.
