Hence why I asked if it's possible to turn off the "redundancy measures", since otherwise a capsuleer piloting a sub-supercapital ship is artificially limited from spending more than a few days away from a station. Hmm, that's an inconsistancy, considering the pod gantry built into all starships was a special but not entirely uncommon modification to ships already heavily modified to accommodate capsuleers. Looks to me like CCP Falcon decided to just change set lore on his own whim (or either he simply didn't read into the canon)...
To me looks like neither of you know how to read.
Alright, let's phrase this a bit more politely. Falcon mentioned on the linked post that "most vessels that are sub super-capital don't have the on board facilities to provide a place for capsuleers to decant". The negation of "most" is not "none", but "some". Therefore, we may assume that some vessels that are smaller than supercapitals do have the onboard facilities to provide a place for the controlling capsuleer to decant.
If we want to wave hands at the issue, I would assume that the vast majority of ships do dock regularly, which greatly reduces the need to have onboard facilities for something found on every station anyway. Docking regularly may also be considered a behaviour that should be reinforced, since this makes the mighty demigod Empyreans momentarily vulnerable. |

One would presume a stand-by bridge for non-capsuleer watchstanders, and one would further imagine that there's some kind of 'wake me up' button placed there.
Abusing the 'wake me up' button may result in a sudden vacuuming of the stand-by bridge. Cleanliness is important, you kow! Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

So if the NPC pirates actually wanted to hurt us, they could just seize that moment when *every* capsuleer simultaneously shuts of for some kip, floating in space in their ships with their POSs undefended. Sansha could be in and out of Jita in moments... Give a man a match and you warm him for a day.

I think you should probably take CCP Eterne's comment as tongue in cheek rather than actual canon in this case. CCP Falcon -á || -á EVE Community Team -á || -á EVE Illuminati -á || -á Live Events Organizer

id like to think they sleep sometimes when you log off, or in downtime. a capsuleer definetly need sleep like a normal human being. Nullsec changed me. |

What is this!
...but yeah, it's a game. There's some wiggle-room, and I at least spend way more time offline than the daily fifteen minutes. |

CONCORD mandates that this time period occurs every day between roughly 11:00 and 11:30 to keep terrible things from happening. Is it possible to turn off these redundancy measures? Since to my understanding only larger capital ships allow capsuleers to exit their pod in-flight, so anything smaller would have to dock once a day (or at least once every few days) if they can't sleep properly while inside the pod. Any ship equipped with the cross-capsule gantry can do that - not sure exactly what ships it's limited to, but... vOv Also, getting out of your capsule works wonders for bypassing stuff like that. I'd take a warm bed over a bunch of goop any day (or night, as it were). This post by Falcon states that anything sub-supercapital doesn't have the proper equipment to allow a capsuleer to exit the pod in-flight. Hence why I asked if it's possible to turn off the "redundancy measures", since otherwise a capsuleer piloting a sub-supercapital ship is artificially limited from spending more than a few days away from a station.
Some people have already covered this.
But also, in the prime fiction (Empyrean Age and Templar one) you have the Significance, a research vessel around a kilometre long (Battleship sized) which is a cross-capsule variant.
