As someone who has maxed all 11 of the learning skills IĈve enjoyed an advantage over those who wouldnĈt commit themselves. IĈm about to lose that. Five million three hundred seventy six thousand (5,376,000) skill points is not going to make up for that.
Er yes, actually it is. That's exactly what it's going to make up for. You get 5.76M SP to spend in skills with awkward stat combinations, meaning that you can use your fancy-dan spec'd skills to keep on rolling at 2700 SP/hr while other, lesser beings will have to do without those skills or train at a sub-optimal rate, thus giving you what scientists are calling an advantage. Not to mention that even if you put those 5.76M SP into respec skills, you'll still have more non-learning skillpoints for 5760000/72 hrs = 3,333 days, 8 hours. Just over 9 years. There's your other advantage for training 5+5s: you'll have a skill advantage for NINE YEARS. And that's only if you put the SP into respec skills; put them in stuff like Leadership or Solcail, and you'll probably have an SP advantage lasting well over a decade.
PS I trained my learning skills before all this new player experience stuff started too. I trained them at the time because I wanted them at the time. That was all the justification I needed.
Also lol @ you whining about 20 mill ISK worth of skillbooks that you bought 4 years ago. Seriously? Really?  In the time you took to baww about your 20 mill (they you spent four years ago) you could have quite literally made at least that much ISK.
Things change. Adapt, although being handed a massive free bonus doesn't actually take much adapting too. HTFU.
Or alternatively, contract me your stuffs and biomass yourself. Either is fine.
But whatever you do, please improve your mathematical literacy to the point where people dont think of you as an uneducated ignoramus as well as a whiny little crybaby.

What they need to do now that they are removing the learning skill tree is apply the PLEX for remap plan that they were going to add as well. I spent a good bit of my EVE career with high memory and a much slower skilling speed because of a snafu in laying out my character originally. I would like the ability now to trade off high skilling speeds where ever I want with unlimited neural remaps. That would make up for giving everyone that was 5/4 or 5/3 the same skilling speeds that I now enjoy.
Why would you have a 5/3, it was more efficient to go 4/4 then 5/4.
It used to be you had to do the 5 to get the 3.

He's nearly trained up enough skills to be "ready for PvP"

Geez. Do you even try to read what youĈre replying to? The advantage IĈm losing is faster learning speed over those who have chosen not to commit to the game of EVE to the degree that I have.
Do you even try yourself? You'll have an absolute advantage for ever and a relative advantage for almost a decade.
Come back in 2019, when you'll have ~300 million skillpoints, and cry that now you're 72 SP /hr worse off than you would have been otherwise.

The simplest reason I can offer is that it's going to happen anyway, so take the candy and be happy for the next 8 years.
