Carebears are simply people who do not seek retaliation when something happens they do not agree with, or seek someone else out to do their retaliating.
Hence why "nullbears" exist as well.
An industrialist is naturally a carebear by profession.
Being a "carebear" is only a slight from those who thrive on misery and wanton destruction/grief.
Otherwise it's merely a description. There will always be "exception to the rule" because well, it isn't a rule.
It's a word.

But I believe I got my point across that putting people in nice neat little boxes especially in this game is almost pointless. Yeah, but I don't think the idea is to say people are always in one of these two groups. It's just sticking a couple of example attitudes next to each other for comparison.
The example given could also be the same person at different points in their eve career as well.

Sure they would. You don't need to travel or fight in combat to be an industrialist.

Being industrialists, they engage in all the other kinds (many of them far more damaging to the opponent that just a ship going poof). If the industrialists were carebears, they would end up with nothing (or at least very little), which goes rather against the goal of being an industrialist to begin with.
Too many absolutes for such loosely used terms.
Industrialists like and want to build, because it's a non combative form for profit. Combat is the vehicle that drives their market. I rarely see an industrialist flying his own(or her) ship into combat to make that profit. Whether that be a stockpile of ore or researching the blueprint used to create the ship.
Industrialists need the market, not the combat, to make a profit. Combat is merely one way to facilitate that. Otherwise what you are saying is a jump freighter would never be built.
Differentiating between carebear and industrialist is nothing but the spelling of the word. I'll show you.

See what I did there? Both statements are true.

But carebears can be good players and industrialists can be bad players.
Approach to the game doesn't equal skill in that approach.
Alternatively, you can start as one and become the other.
Not to mention factoring the term "nullbear" into it either.
...it's like trying to split the terms "newb" and "rookie" and doesn't really warrant a full on description of the term imo.
Too much over analyzing.
