More like asking that gameplay development [a POB location] that was generated on account of a server development [mining field placement] not be altered without compensation when it has resulted in years of work.
POB's arent a constant, objects in space traditionally have been. The vice-versa is occurring here.
If tomorrow Saltese is destroyed by a fleet of Marducks... thatd still even make a hell of a lot more sense then a bunch of Ore fields magically disappearing from around Saltese/the entire system
Not quite, more than once objects have been moved in space regardless of the PoB at their location, such one example is the Omega-49 jump hole, that was moved with the redoing of Dublin. Also, try to reach to the administration team - perhaps the PoB can be moved to the location of the new field?
Again, it's called development of the mod, many systems are being removed or repurposed since we have currently more systems than players.
EDIT: Actually, looking at the map Vespucci fields aren't being changed. They are just being activated, while Humboldt as a whole is being deleted.

I never asked that, i just stated that it is really strange to see an ore field in a home system. The fact that saltese exist in this field since almost 2 years now is just a "bonus"
As far as I know, Vespucci is being opened up, so it's no longer a "Guard System" tier. As for being the home system of a certain faction - I think it doesn't matter that much as long as:
A) The mining fields are accessible to pirates/hostiles.
B) There is no stationary battleships in proximity of 30k of the mining field (even though I believe that's the distance from Essex to the gold ore fields in Dublin).
