You could then maybe tear his shields up, give his hull a good battering, and he'll drop your gold back before he runs away

Its 100% good, the poor thing is that you can chose to mine where a cmdr will not find you. The NPC's however just turn up as they are not random
That's great. I love NPCs that are more than mere cannon fodder or quest signposts. Of course it would be even better if the dialogue went like this:
<James Melin>What treats doth thou carry?
<James Melin>Release any cargo and I may let thee live.
<James Melin>I'll pick thy bones clean, greenhorn.
<James Melin>Just the cargo I was looking for.
<James Melin>What treats doth thou carry?

If only the commander traders would drop cargo instead of this "run of die trying" mentality. I've yet to have a commander stop and give up any loot. Some will learn eventually.
