I chuckled 
All those implications could be deduced by logic and were discussed in the weeks/months prior to patch .. we actually started bitching/moaning/whining immediately after FF when they presented the lame-brain ideas. They did not listen and barely responded in that period, what makes you think they will now that the turd has been allowed to fester and any change would require a much larger /facepalm'ing session on their part?
CCP are bogged down with mediocrity and ineptitude. They probably do not have a plan for FW at all .. they have said repeatedly that they are drawing one up but with game breakers changers like this recent without revealing said plan beforehand other than "use FW as guinea pig blablabla".

Causing them "grief" does absolutely nothing other than allow for the accumulation of infini-LP through plexing .. (maximum of half what a Shakorite would get as they can solo any plex by the way).
Even if by some miracle, Shakorites are asleep for several days and a system is flipped somewhere in the sticks the plex balance is so broken that it will be a practical impossibility to hold such a system .. (ref: any system held beyond Dal pre-idiocy)
Reset wouldn't have helped much, merely delayed the current situation. Difference in plexing is really that pronounced, a small fact that the Gal/Cal chest-beaters can't seem to fathom as they both have stupidly solo'able NPCs and a warzone specifically designed for FW. |

Minors can be done in a PvP fit frig/dessie. Primarily due to ranges involved, 10km button and small weapons reaching only 10-15km .. can be a bit tricky when full spawn in the dessie heavy minors but not an issue.
All medium/majors are on the other hand nigh impossible to solo .. a few can be done in tricked out PvE boats or one can spend 2x the time sniping rats and going on/off timer constantly.
Compare the above to a Shakorite being able to tracking/speed tank all plexes without firing a single shot and never leaving button

Black Rise was designed and added specifically for Empyrean Age as Caldari had no low-sec to speak of in that area . result is that both sides were relatively 'even' geographically which has made for (looked at from outside) a much more lively theatre.
Amarr/Shakorite front consists of Amarr's double donut where any system can be reached in less than five minutes and the Shakorite elongated, snaky space where you need to pack a picnic basket to reach the farthest system .. add the long line of bottlenecks to the snake and you can feel your cheeks being parted  |

How is a factual post like the one you quoted a whine?
Almost everyone in FW have been switching sides and taking breaks every so often .. we never did. RP was not even on the table for that decision I think, we are all just tired/frustrated/bored and needed a change of scenery.
But you are right of course, we have had zero impact on anything or anyone. The lol-RP corps are not the ones who did/arranged 99% of Amarr plexing the first 2.5 years, nor were they the ones who have tried to get CCP to look over their shoulder once in a while and they certainly did not make people smile out of amusement or wince out of anger/pity.
RP makes any game in which it rears its head .. better, more fun and for the lol-RP'er .. mor challenging.
The fact that we have left should in the ideal world, have served as a warning bell or wake-up call if you like for CCP .. much like when Pandemic Legion turned their backs on the sovereignty "game" should have been a warning about game play needing attention.
