Its quite disappointing that a Large POS replacement (cost 2 bil) will cost 30bil plus.
An 30b structure with outrageous vulnerability window is surely going to be quite a big target.
Courier contracts to these structures will make up for it a little, but moving materials between structures is going to be absolutely disgustingly unfun for anybody who replaces their Large POS with Mediums or Larges.

Is this an oversight or intended? IF not intended, is there anything in the works to keep the current benefits to producing in lowsec?
There is a big production buff compared to hisec that applies to everything, not just capital components. Before - build capital components in lowsec but nothing else, after - build almost everything in lowsec if you want.

The Medium Engineering Complex will require 9 hours of vulnerability weekly, with 18 hours and 36 hours for the Large and XL Engineering Complexes respectively
... is a stupid mechanic. Give them an extra timer for reinforce or destruction but making something in space invulnerable for all but 9/18/36 hours a week is lame. The most common argument is 'this is the way it worked before technically' and while I agree to some extent with POS's and outposts being easy to change when the timers came out, think of it from a hostile FC standpoint... I want to make a name for myself in my new alliance by going out and reinforcing stuff, picking fights, poking beehives, flying spaceships. With a POS or outpost I can go do that, it's floating in space and I can shoot it to provoke a response. You've made all these structures literally invulnerable for all but a tiny window. It's a giant **** mechanic in a game that used be HTFU or GTFO.
in an NPC station there is no vulnerability period, and in an outpost nothing drops.
This is a massive buff for people who like to blow up structures as the best in class structure for almost every item in every space apart from possibly hisec now drops stuff.
