ALL Barges are Omega?

My point is that almost all PLEX was initially bought with cash. If fewer people buy PLEX, less PLEX is on the ingame market.

PLEX actually costs more $$$ for a month’s omega than a sub, sales notwithstanding.

Not necessarily right, if big packages are bought instead of small ones.
But indeed it’s an interesting question: How many players directly buy PLEX? As you stated it’s not the best idea to buy PLEX in cash to plex your account, so there are other incentives. Probably to get items you only can buy by paying ISK like expensive ships.
So the leverage between PLEX buyers and account plexers is the PLEX price in ISK.

Or take advantage of the NES offers of cheap subs for a fraction of PLEX that comes around once in a while.
