You will just get even more multiboxing and even more bots. Because doing gate duty and nothing else for hours is such a great activity, individual players will do that voluntarily all the time on all up to 5 gates in some systems. Sounds like a very great thing … to make bots an even bigger thing in EVE and overwhelm the already understaffed security team.
As long as null sec does not become like w-space, delayed local is no option. It also has not created more player interaction because there were fewer players logged in overall.
And CCP_Falcon spouting this nonsense on some discord also just shows that this guy has no idea how EVE works at all. Giving null sec most of the disadvantages of w-space without the advantages sounds Betsy much like a thing CCP would do.
