I want you to re-read what you just wrote there and consider that, just maybe, there's something you're not being honest with yourself about.

Serious question: why should any nullsec organisation respect industrialists when there's always another one who'll sell for slightly less?

If it's the former, killing all hisec miners is the wrong way to go about this. Even you said in the OP that bots are predictable, and all warp out in sequence when locked. Ergo, your methods are barbaric.
If it's the latter, than YOU ARE A F****** IDIOT. Yes, you WILL stop hisec mining. But you then forget that with no hisec miners, volumes of the lower-level ores will drastically decrease, causing HUGE price spikes. Yes, the current stockpiles will last a long time, and YES there will still be SOME income, but it will all be in losec, where everything will have turned into mass resources wars. Picture what would happen if the real world suddenly ran out of fossil fuels and the only way left to power things were national reserves. Extermination of hisec mining would be that ONE HUNDREDFOLD. Ships would be destroied before they could deliver their payloads, drastically increasing the chance that one alliance could horde all the game's minerals and resources and extort everyone else, requiring a complete reboot of the game. Everyone would have to start from ground zero. Rookie ships all around.
So if your endgame is to eliminate all hisec mining for all time....
Than I hope you like the end of the Galaxy.
Because that's what you'll get.
No, what we'll get is more people mining in 0.0
In fact it's happening already. Even goons are mining now, I know for a fact.
So pack up your Hulk, start looking for a 0.0 corp and prepare to make more ISK than you've seen before.

Goons mining? Please someone post a screenshot, that must be so emberrassing 
To quote the goon I discussed it with "Yes mining is still horrible, but 5 hulks pulling in 100M/hr each makes up for a lot" (He was cherry-picking the ABCs in mining anoms and grav sites)

Why, in Deklein of course. Where else would they mine if not their own space?

Maybe enouraging that "primary source" to see that there's far more ore than they ever dreamed of, just waiting for them, in space that's actually safer?
