If you want a mining booster on grid then it is not the Rorqual. Stop trying to force square pegs into round holes.
The Rorqual is fine, it sits in a POS and provides a stronger mining boost than the Orca.
Create another ship, smaller, cheaper. Battleship cost. Let it boost stronger than a Rorqual when on grid, chuck in a compression capability (with tractor beam) so it can grab containers of ore and compress it so it's doing something useful. Don't let it store much, Miasmos are perfect for moving the compressed ore away.
Heck create a T2 variant, give it cloak/covert cyno capability, weaker boost to compensate. It can wander around boosting and compressing ore with Prospects and a blockade runner... |

The Rorqual "makes" significant isk. It may not directly translate as isk into your wallet, or ore into your hold, but your fleet is mining considerably more ore than it would have done otherwise.
If you do not feel you are being adequately compensated for that then that isn't an issue with the Rorqual or its abilities.
You're never realistically going to convince Rorqual owners to sit in a belt, even if it could mine like a hulk, or two hulks. Swiftly visit a belt maybe, sit in it no... |

Victoria made a valid point, and it is shared amongst many Rorqual pilots. The CCP guys are not industry experts, sure they recognise the failings of the Rorqual and perhaps understandably believe that putting it into a belt will solve everything.
People are allowed to disagree with that, and therefore with you.
I appreciate your frustration that not everyone agrees your idea is fantastic but the silly name calling doesn't help your cause.
