Alts are practically mandatory.
The alt to check if you're jumping into a station camp
The alt to see what's outside the station since you don't have windows
The alt to put up a cyno field
The alt to check prices in a different region
The alt to do POS logistics
The alt to experience a part of the game your main couldn't experience without 5 more years of training
There are all kinds of ways in which alts are encouraged. Then of course they also do things like let you haul stuff for your pirate chars or scoop loot after a suicide attack.

So, if you are missioning with others then you shouldn't complain if these missions were to be moved to low sec.
That's some ******** reasoning. Many people don't do 4's with others.
Level 5's are already in low sec and are meant to be done in groups. If you want groups of missioners in low sec ask for those to be boosted.

None of these things need an alt. They just need the player to "man up" and do it alone
Read. Think. THEN post. You fail.
I'd love to see you open a cyno alone.
Every activity you can't do on your own with one account is CCP practically begging you to open another alt account so you *can* do it. See the repeated power of two ads.

Or get a friend.
Boring and oft repeated activities that require a friend = deliberate appeal to alts.

To earn any decent amount of ISK from Trading usually involves taking huge economical risks that may or may not pay off, so is generally a lot 'riskier' than most would think.
You can make tons of money trading without even leaving your station, with virtually no risk whatsoever.
The only risk to major financial loss is if you're engaged in long term market manipulation or speculation.
Is a risk that can be completely eliminated through planning and intelligence really a risk?
