Profit Share (Better Trade Dividends)

First up, I very, very rarely trade or mine, at all, let alone in a wing.
I totally forgot that Trade Dividends were even a thing until the Alcor CG. Lol

If memory serves, TDs are simply magic money given to team members because you did a thing.
It's quick, it's easy, it's mostly pointless.

But what if, you could manually set "profit sharing" with individual members of your team? (or spread equally)
For example, you could offer 30% of your trade profits to a team member, who is simply flying escort for you. Or more, or less.
(Tip your bodyguard well though, they have more guns)
When you make profit on sold goods, the allocated profit share amount is split amongst the appropriate team member(s) , they can claim this from the nearest starport.

You could set the profit share higher, or lower obviously, spread it equally amongst the team, or assign it individually, for instances when a single person is saving for a big purchase (like a carrier).
It should always defaults to 0% though, so you can't easily be scammed.

Thoughts?
 
would let you give too much to a new player and Fdev has informed us that its unhealthy for the game.

God forbid that new bro fly around with you for a few hours and be able to buy a type 9. Its much better to have him grind 8 or so on foot CZ to get that type 9
 
So a similar thing already exist, it is called Wing missions... pick one up, share with your friend/friends, complete the mission, and everyone get the same reward.

yeah, too bad they are still one of the worst ways to make credits outside of combat missions
