Supported !
Just to make it clear, the current plex system is RMT between players, facilitated by CCP.
If one adds the option to directly use a Plex for ingame gain ( in whatever form ) then it becomes microtransactions with CCP.
Microtransactions mean extra costs for the players above and beyond the regular monthly fee.
So a big NO to microtransactions !

I want to clarify the reason why most people are against Plex for remaps, because most people who are for this don't understand or do not want to understand :
The ability to remap with plex adds a form of wealth to the game ( a service that gives you more flexibility in gameplay ), this opposed to the current plex for gametime system where the wealth in the game is only redistributed between the players.
So it is the current system of Limited Player RMT regulated by CCP versus the introduction of a Microtransaction system, where one buys ingame benefits directly from CCP.
I hope this helps and perhaps the OP should clarify this in his post

I think this proposal is blowing this way out of proportion. I don't see any valid reason to be against plex for neural remapping except that it could open the door to a cash shop which I would most definitely be against. Besides that, this proposal has no merit imo.
NOT supported.
This is exactly my and many others concern.
Like some other poster said :
"This is microtransactions, opening Pandora's Box tbh"

This is true.
Up to now, for every 15 dollars that CCP received, someone would get a month of gameplay, whereas with this, they will receive 15 dollars without giving a month of gameplay to someone in return.
In that sense it is a "micropayment".
That doesn't mean it's a bad idea.
You can't just brandish the word MICROPAYMENT as some Evil That Will Ruin EvEÖ.
There's nothing wrong with CCP selling other services than gametime, and they already do it. Character transfers, portrait changes, corp logo changes. But more importantly: alt accounts.
This change would not ruin EVE, but it is against my gaming ideology that when players have to pay a monthly sub, they also have to pay for extra perks. Asking us to pay for a subscription and pay for ingame advantages on top of that is just over the top for me.
