Those who haul need money in that very Moment or they save up for something bigger. You can't just Expect an event to occur every day to supply you with money, and certainly I doubt that there is anyone who does that.
So saying that factions will die because of this is just overly Dramatic and unrealistic. The amount of money gained from a week of events ( lets say 1 event per week even though that is not even the case I think) and the money gained from hauling in that time can differ. On the long run only relying on data when you need money is just silly.
Now what do I do? Spend 1 hours once a week or trade dring ore like crazy for days for the same amount of money? It is objectively imbalanced, but if you don't have problems with it, it's fine.
You spend the hour online to be one of 30 people Spamming the tractorbeam to maybe get what I worked for. This is like gambling basically, isn't it? You have the Chance to make a Ton of credits with no effort, or you get nothing at all. Or you work hard and spend time earning your credits, which you will receice 100% of the time.
Fisrt of all, easy for numbers (30), second of all, I always left from those events with full cargo somehow. I visited like 3 or 4 events in general. Like if you are not 5k away from the fight, you will get your data.
