I don't like paying my money every month to spend most of my time travelling to get a mod and then travelling like another 6 jumps to get another mod, etc. I use insta to get the unfun part of this game out of the way. I don't even care about the safe travel part most of the time. So why not make it so you can travel faster in empire and slower the more you get into lower sec. Everything from 1.0 to 0.5 make it so you can land on top of the gates and start getting further away the lower the sec status 0.4 = 5km 0.3 = 7km 0.2 = 10km 0.1 = 12 km and 0.0 = 15km. That way you still have the pvp and ganking opportunities and you also get fast travel in the boring areas. And if you like having to travel 15km to a gate every jump in a frieghter, hauler, or mining barge then you have a strange idea of fun.

It's in 0.0 where you need to travel faster, in most cases. 0.0 markets are so spread out it'd be impossible. Again, it's fine the way it is, the only people wanting it changed are the people who want to gate camp all day and gank people. Those people are also too lazy to throw up a damned bubble and suck people out of warp. 
Yeah I can agree with you there, and I was more addressing the issue of instas making people near invulnerable and that taking away from the pvp and such. However yeah if you are in an alliance that doesn't have a strong industrial base in 0.0 and you have to travel 50 jumps to pick up and fit an enyo just to travel another 50 jumps and get it blown up again, I think that coupled with the fact that with no instas you will see a lot less of those fun little hostile wolf packs that would travel 50 jumps to pay you a visit and that will cut down on a lot of pvp. I guess we will all have to adjust I guess and deal with having to move like a snail. Or I could come up with a mmorpg called "travel".
