I can see the point though. The CCP's philosophy is pretty "So what, we're winning. Cry about it lol."

A great example is how we used to do a lot of recycling stateside. They "economy of scale"d it to death and suddenly recycling stateside was no longer worth it and most of it closed up. Now recycled goods aren't worth much to them either so they're like "Oh well who cares." and it never recovered.

So if we compromise first, they'll likely want to take advantage. If they compromise, they're probably convinced (perhaps rightly so), that we'll do some underhanded thing to pull power from them instead.

It's utterly ridiculous seeing as we share a planet, but, yeah...
