Logic isn't your strong suit, is it?
Nobody starts in Colonia, so people who got there put some effort.
Games are supposed to provide challenge. You can't handle that, don't play.
Forсing players to visit colonia engineers it is oppression

Its all to get rapid charge SCBs which just makes overpowered defences even worse, particularly on cutters which at least used to be vulnerable to feedback cascade rails. I say 'vulnerable', it just meant Prism cutters couldnt guarantee having 20 thousand MJ shields in every fight. For a while they had to weep at just 9000 sometimes. Thank goodness the skill barrier is now being able to choose a system to hiwake to within 30mins.
Equality of opportunity, at least for Horizons players, is already present.
You said it yourself. Why should you travel for days if you don't want to? The answer is: You don't have too.
Don't force yourself. Your ship can function perfectly without those extra engineering upgrades.

Thank you for all your views and thoughts on this matter, love this community, as always!
"Oppression"?
We're really going there?
OP.... no. Just no. You aren't being even a little bit oppressed, and you aren't being forced to do anything. Go away.

Press one button 200 times in a row without using any part of brain or body is not a challenge.
Then stop playing video games, because that's literally all of them, no exception.
It seems that for you it is though. Hence whining.
So.... don't get those things? Or don't go all the way to Colonia just for those things? Nobody is forcing this on you... but frankly, we need more things to encourage players to go beyond the bubble.
Might I say though, if your gameplay is inexorably broken by the lack of a G5-modified SCB or Life Support, sounds like you're doing something very, very wrong.

And its 3-4 hours of zero gameplay: just jumping and watching loading screens. If the prospect was to spend all the time I had for entertainment on watching loading screens I'd pass too. Going to Colonia took me weeks.
And to those "in a week I travelled tens of thousands of LY, did three CGs then travelled some more.": good for you, but try to get some perspective.
Indeed. I wonder if those complaining actually considered helping out getting those engineers developed?
I guess sooner or later those upgrades will come to the bubble, but i see nothing wrong with the Colonia people reaping the rewards, or those who put the effort in to travel and get them. Not sure why anyone would, beyond min/maxers, since they are marginal benefit. Hell, if FD added DD6 only in Colonia i wouldn't be making the trip unless i was already planning on going out there.
FSD Long Range Grade 6 might be tempting though
Hum seen the video of Alex doing 107 jumps. He dose talk about risks, repairs.

Only if you try to min max it, don't think like Khan get out from the straightest line and bag a load of first discoveries on the way. I just spent 3-4 hours over the last few days exploring one new system.
Min-maxers don't enjoy anything.

If you need Long Range 6, then probably a trip to Colonia is a walk in the park
