It doesn't matter if you've bought an Idris or not...servers aren't worth a jot flying around in a $50 Aurora either. Of all SC's bugs and issues...the server performance is top of any current players 'They need to get this sorted' list. The 30k's have all but gone in the current live and PTU patches...desync and server lag is ridiculous even on low populated servers. It effects everything from mining to PvE combat to PvP.
Ay, the uber-chariot thing is more about whether they can actually deliver what they've pre-sold.
But for sure they need to at least revamp what they've got, to improve performance and allow for the solar system expansions. (And they surely totally should be able to do that. It's pretty standard fare to achieve, given the time frame, even if hampered by a Cryengine base. They can call it 'Mushy Servers and Peas', or whatever they like. Just get it done
They should probably just admit that Server Meshing itself is a pipe dream though. And deal with the fallout from that, regarding the feasibility of the Idris / Javelin class ships.
But I won't hold my breath on that
