Remove POB regulation double standards from rules

Hello, I would like to open discussion about this issue which bothers me. I know POBs are touchy subject for part of the community, but let´s keep this civil and constructive and do not derail it please. Just for the record, I do not own any POB.

So, the subject of discussion is this part of rules:

Quote:Outer Regional Space
- House Military, Police, and Intelligence factions may not enforce roleplay consequences upon non-hostile POBs, breaking House Laws or not, within Outer Regional Space.

SUMMARY:
This rule basically means that in all systems which are wrote in red, POBs are immune against lawfuls even if the base is illegal or is breaking laws in any way. Unfortunately it applies even to vital connections between houses like Omega-7, Kepler or Galileo. However, my main point is that these rules represent brutal double standard towards lawfuls and unlawfuls. Just look at the Rheinland as the finest example (I will use it because I play there the most so I know situation there the best). Rheinland lawfuls can´t regulate/destroy unwanted POBs even in systems where they have stations (Omega-7, Sigma-15=former Luneburg) or battleship (Dresden) while Red Hessians can regulate/destroy unwanted POBs in whole Rheinland, all Omegas, Cambridge, Omicron Theta and Omicron Gamma. Not to mention Corsairs - which can do the same in whole Bretonia, four Rheinland systems (funnily enough even in Dresden where Rheinland lawfuls are powerless due to rules despite it is system next to capital one) as well as all Omegas, Sigmas and Omicrons. Or winner of this contest - Outcasts, which can kill bases in THREE (!) complete houses (Kusari, Bretonia, Liberty) and all Taus, Sigmas, Omicrons, Gallic Borderworlds, Magellan, Cortez and Coronado. There is no restriction at all, they can regulate/destroy unwanted POBs for example in Pennsylvania or Texas while Liberty can´t do the same even in Bering, which is two jumps away from their capital system.

This does not sound fair, does it? Basically houses are not allowed to properly control their own territory including some vital connections while unlawful factions can field full fleets half across the Sirius from their home systems when they don´t like some POB or do not get protection money. It is simply wrong from both inRP perspective as well as ooRP one. And it is also unfair to POB owners. In border/independent worlds, they have to deal with unlawfuls (often with several ones and sometimes they are at war with each other). That´s fine, they are meant to be dangerous to some degree. But in house space, which by its nature should be safer place, they have to deal with majority of these entities in very same way but on top of that they also have to deal with house lawfuls and follow the laws.

By the way, please don´t bring the flimsy justification that "houses can´t fully control their borderworlds" which I heard from some when current rules were introduced. First, how it comes that houses can´t control their borderworlds, but unlawfuls can freely have control even heart of capital system (all they need is to log in numbers massive enough) or systems which lies completely on the other side of Sirius? And second, at this moment due to current rules setup, completely nonsene situations may happen. Anyone can for example make a base in Omega-7 next to RFP station, name it "Cardamine Shipping Inc." and then really start selling cardamine. Or construct "Fighters Against Corrupted Stupid Chancellor HG" base next to Stuttgart jumpgate where they will offer money for RM/RFP pilots. Or "Die King Charles Die - Dead Royals Storage" doing the same next to GRN battleship in Provence, to bring example from some other house. In all cases, nothing can be done about it by lawfuls. Again, wrong from both inRP as well as ooRP perspective.

SUGGESTIONS:
Now, to be constructive, I will start with some suggestions. Though maybe someone will bring something better, that´s why I posted it openly instead of sending it through player request to admins. Anyway, two basic options in my opinion are:

1. Remove restrictions of house lawfuls and let them regulate POBs in their whole ZOI fully again.
Actually it still won´t be fair completely, what stems from huge difference between house lawfuls ZOIs and some unlawfuls ZOIs (see above), but still better than what we have now.

or

2. Keep "safe zones" in houses´ borderworlds, but then balance it
If admins/community really thinks that we need POBs protected from house laws and lawfuls in their borderworlds, then only fair way how to balance it is to create also safe zones where POBs will be protected from unlawfuls. After all, how much sense it makes when Rheinland law enforcers can´t control and keep clean vital trade route to Bretonia, but Hessians can freely kill base next to planet New Berlin which is supposed to be the most heavily protected place? If lawfuls are not allowed to control borderworlds/independent worlds, then unlawfuls should not be allowed to "control" capital house space, or more likely all core house space (see sovereign house space = blue names in rules).

Though to bring at least some RP sense into it, protection should not apply in close proximity of the public areas or bases. Thus rules could look like this:

Sovereign House Space
- Unlawful and Quasi-lawful factions may not enforce roleplay consequences upon non-hostile POBs, cooperating with them or not, within House Capital Systems/Sovereign House Space. This does not apply to area of 15 kilometers around Unlawful and Quasi-lawful bases.

Outer Regional Space
- House Military, Police, and Intelligence factions may not enforce roleplay consequences upon non-hostile POBs, breaking House Laws or not, within Outer Regional Space. This does not apply to area of 15 kilometers around lawful and corporate bases, trade lanes and jump gates.
