give a new player 2 injectors
how much of a boost to what they are able to do would that give them?
maybe not to high SP players. but to new players, 1mill SP opens up alot more doors to what they are able to do.
This is a fact.
When we all started EVE, even 1 day training seemed like forever.
And no, it's not because 'everyone wants instant gratification nowadays' lol. It's because as a new player, you're curious to try out lots of stuff, and not many (any?) games have RL training mechanic, so 'sorry you can do this, but you'll have to wait 'till next week' actually does sound strange to an EVE newbie.
When you get to the point where you're not even sure which skill to train, you tend to forget this simple fact.

Pirate ships and deadspace modules already provide this, probably more cheaply and with much higher bonuses than the few skills 1 mil SP gets you. This is about money, nothing more, nothing less. Hmm that applies only to highsec mission running, though. It's a terrible idea to put deadspace mods on a PVP ship in all new player PVP situations (e.g. RvB, FW, null starter corps, etc.)

Why expand in one direction but not the other? I should be able to play the game without having to train my character for a lower price. You already will be able to do just that!
It's an interesting consequence of the new system, that apparently not many people have realized so far:
1. Get 1-month sub with your own money (cash or PLEX) 2. Gain SP, even though you do not want it for yourself 3. Sell all of that SP, get ISK 4. Use ISK to puy PLEX (you may or may not have to add some of your own ISK to get a full PLEX out of 1 month SP, depending on market prices; still it's highly probable that 1 month SP will allow you to fund at least 80-90% of a PLEX) 5. Play for free, or at least play 'at a discount'
