Not getting involved in anything else to do with this thread, but I'd just like to point out that trade ships are only PvP dead if you actually kill them. Managing to dock while under fire is a transport's win condition. Despite this, the rule protection only extends explicitly for the purpose of trading, so logging another non-trading character within the same system is still disallowed.
