I don't think I agree with your assessment of your odds. Especially now that Empress Catiz holds the throne. A lady who is known for her proficiency in industry and economics. I expect a substantial naval modernisation program will be one of Empress Catiz's policies in the coming years.
While many of the Houses suffered during advance of the Elder Fleet. And Empress Jamyl was able to rally and defeat those who dared to cross in Imperial Space it was hardly the Reclaiming that was spoken of.
I have noted with Empress Catiz on the throne that her commitment to the Reclaiming will not just be on the Military Front. The Empire is by far the largest and oldest of our great nations as a result will use economics to not only to improve Imperial way of Life, but the means to market it elsewhere.
The really war will not be between the Empire and the Republic, but Amarr Consortiums against Republic Consortiums.

The Reclaiming as I know it has been stemmed by Republic Forces after the Empire foolishly attacked the Jove.
And the Elder Fleet was stopped by the Imperial Navy. I can this more than even.
I don't see the need to continue the provocation of one side or the other when there are bigger threats out. Specifically the Kyonoke threat that endangers all factions.
I have a tremendous respect for the Matari people and the suffering at the Imperial hands.
But if there were to be an invasion of Imperial Space where I make my home. Then I will gladly meet you in battle.
Currently the Empire and the Republic are not at adds. Let's not be the ones to escalate this.

There are those in the Empire who still cling to the old ways. They are rapidly becoming an exception since the decrees of Jamyl I.
I do not personally endorse the stealing of any race so they and their ancestors can atone for imagined sins.
Unless the Empress and or the Theology Council decides to reverse this trend I believe those Matari held in captivity will one day be freed.

It is unfortunate that the Empire took steps to enslave innocent peoples as part of assimilating the Empire.
Slavery in this regard is not purely an Imperial issue. Numerous criminal organization enslave for their own reasons. Like the aforementioned raiders.
Slavery is practiced by the Empire still. But again not what were like during our Reclaiming efforts. And certainly not for spiritual reasons.
But again, the Empire has not been at war specifically to reclaim and conquer for nearly 200 years. Those slaves that do remain serve as form incarceration against Imperial Law.

My point is that now the Empire is not pursuing a campaign of wholesale slavery.
Nor does it officially endorse independent slavers that continue the trade.
As it has been pointed out the current Empress, an Industrialist will probably in engage in economic war with the Republic.
And all perfectly legal under the eyes of CONCORD.

I am in complete agreement.
The Empire does need to streamline a lot its issues. But when you have an Emperor that can live for nearly 500 years there is very little to be done except outright civil war.
