Eve is now further away from what he describes than ever before.
The amount of "rules" are overwhelming the sandbox element. what makes you think a sandbox with rules is not a sandbox? Here's a big box full of sand, go play in it. NO NOT LIKE THAT As a parent of twin boys, that's exactly what happens " no, don't ,stop that,put that down,let go of her hair.....and his"
CCP has to shape the conditions in the sandbox universe so that more than 1 player can happily use the sand to do something with it, also players of different age need a meaningful way to play "together" without dividing the box. A virtually impossible endeavor requiring a constant flux of re-balancing. That said, I'm in general for simple (but effective) rules, but it's hard to find those in front of a bathful of criminal energy from thousands of experienced pixel warriors.

Null sec attracts 'big fleets and big ships' types (the so called F1 monkeys, of which I am a proud member) and this Sov system creates an environment directly counter to what sov null dwellers are there for. Putting FozzieSov in null is like wiping away the current FW system in low sec and replacing it with Dominion Sov.. FW people would have just gone to null if they wanted to play that way.
Most of the pvp in EVE is actually small gang and solo. High sec, low sec and FW low sec, npc null, wormhole space, all of these are small gang territory (99% of the time, if there is a big fight in low sec or npc null, it's Sov null coalitions fighting lol). EVE has one real fleet fight (and capital fight) arena (Sov null) and CCPs brilliant idea here is to impose a small gang Sov system on it....
This is why CCP gets complaints, because sometimes they demonstrate breath-taking short sightedness.
Very on the point. My second thought on the proposals was ... this is FW 2.0. As a small gang / solo player I personally would like to see my playstyle expanded to new areas, but I think a lot of people don't like it, meaning less targets finally. I don't have a good idea yet ... just some random "feelings". Sov should be around siege and shooting big things with many ships (scrap that Entosis thingy)... maybe Moon goo should be randomly redistributed periodically, so regions get exhausted on usage of the same people (similar like the swing of FW today). Actually the FW analogy is not that bad, "just" scale it up to longer periods and bigger fleets.

With unlimited skill queue and other such things people who get bored can plug in a year of skills, and go play soemthing else. People who use eve-offline numbers as proof that the subs are down are dumb. It CAN mean that, but most likly not.
Also if you look at the last 6 month update form CCP they were merely down 2.5k subs compaired to the first 6 months in 2013.
They have not released the YTD numbers yet, and are holding off till aug. Which means maybe they did take a huge dip. But i don't think so.
Unlimited skill queue has an effect, personally I'm less active during the week since the change only logging in for some announced fleets. My queue is set for the next 4 months.

Why should some non-threat, meaningless little gang be given the tools to force us to fight? They can't even get a decent fleet together.
As you said, this will change in June.

I forgot, there is the way of the EvE player and there is the way of the goons ...

FozzieSov is so well balanced and ready to change the sov game - It was dropped from the release lineup, with no comment or reason.
Need I go on??
Wait, did i understand right, did they scrap it from tomorrow-¦s launch? So our hopes were answered? You got my hopes up.
Moved one week past the July release, tomorrow release as planned with first step.

I like the idea of strong police spawns instead of concord in 0.5 system, maybe limited to the first offense, the second will spawn concord as usual.
