Your idea is new and original. And also in the wrong place.
The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the ho's and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down, and whisper 'no.' |

Clearly WiS is suffering from the haters that generate a S**tstorm every time someone mention WiS (see this thread).
However there are a significant number of players who want this in Eve; I personally would happily pay for expansion (in advance via kickstart).
If 50,000 are prepared to stump up 30 quid; then I'm pretty sure WiS would be a reality.
I guess it all depends on what your definition of: "a significant number" who just want WIS is, vs. the actual number of players who will quit over not having it, vs. the number of subs CCP lost when they turned their resources away from what makes them money for too long when that was punctuated by a miserable expansion marketed to players as an example of :excellence:.
A lot of the so-called "hate" you are perceiving is partly because threads like this do not belong in GD, and mostly because the "CCP, gimme WIS naow!!!!" bleating goes on and on, from the same handful of players who somehow have come to believe they represent the majority of subscribers.
It does not matter how much money you have now, or can generate quickly via fundraising to throw at a idea if the underlying tech is not capable of fulfilling the majority of your customers' expectations. It also helps a lot if there is meaningful game play & content that directly relates to and impacts EVE the PVP game. After more than half a decade of spitballing, CCP doesn't even have what players will actually do in WIS worked out, and that's hardly due to a lack of funds, which they once had plenty of when they were actively working on it.

.
You (and others) are making a lot of assumptions regarding what has been proposed by players vs. what CCP can (or will) actually deliver. And that's one of the big problems. Player expectations far exceed CCP's present capability both financially and technologically.
if CCP could make multi-avatar interaction work (as expected) within the limits of their budget and technological capabilities, they would have done it. This is no different then the problem they have with their server node software not supporting more than 1 CPU. If they were capable of fixing it given the resources available, they would have.
Maybe a kickstarter project should be created instead to subsidize replacing incompatible player hardware and operating systems? That is another glaring bottleneck in what is preventing CCP from delivering WIS in a form that even remotely meets baseline player expectations.

Let me be the first to thank you for FPSing, emoting, and playing dress-up via micro-transactions elsewhere.
