A lot of people here have invested more than 100M to get all the scan probe bpo and researched them. An investment that is nullified by this expansion.
Wouldn't it be nice, if this bpo would be transformed into moon probe bpo, so that there is at least a little feeling of closure?

Yeah, been wondering myself how this was going to be handled. Our corp has multiple researched copies of ALL the probe BPOs. The BPOs for the launchers are not that big a deal. But I foresee a glut of probe BPOs on contracts for the future.

While that might solve the "Now I have too many Exploration Probe BPOs" problem... it would instantly become the "Now I have too many Moon Probe BPOs" problem.
I honestly could see only a couple resolutions.
- Either a way to sell them off for a variable amount based on ME/PE.
- A means of rolling all the accumulated ME/PE into one.
- Or people will simply be left with excessive BPOs, and they will either get sold via Contracts, or trashed.
The most fair would be to have CCP "buy them back" since they have completely changed the entire Exploration mechanic.
A combining would be nice, since then you could have 1 BPO with ME 50 instead of 20 BPO with ME 10. Just take the average research time on each, and apply it to one as though it had been researched for just as long.
However, I'm pretty sure that the final option will be the end result. Either everyone will flood the Contracts, and pretty soon there won't be a player around that doesn't have an ME 10 BPO of their own... or people will end up trashing them where they discover there's no use for 20 BPO when only 1 is needed.

Don't take my ranting personally. I may just be arguing the topic, unless you're saying something stupid, and then I mean every word.

I'm in the same position. But I have no need for moon probe BPO's, so I would be even more annoyed at that solution.
A better solution (for me, at least!) would be for CCP to create an agent you can turn them into for either a new probe BPO of the same ME/PE, or for isk reimbursement based on the ME/PE researched.
This makes it our decision. Do we want a new probe BPO? Do we want several? Do we want isk reimbursement?

all pos related stuff is NPC-price and therefore an isk sink.
i dont see the need to change that premise or even scratch it one little bit.
(except fuel pellets but those ingredients are NPC, so...)
