So it's the same small group of people making random threads that get merged? Hmmmm
Well, my overly active paranoia gland has noted, only when an older voice leaves, does a new one pop up, on a more recent, newer account

thank you for your responses. Yeah, they could make 2 separate saves at least. Thank you Jordan Cobalt!

If they force people in to open play or give bonuses for it, all that will happen is people start blocking/firewalling P2P traffic while in open. So you won't be able to enter their session (this works I tried it), but still get the benefits from it.
It is the way it is by design. If you don't like it, well to bad really
I would consider that an exploit and I'm fairly sure that there are methods to codewise check if ports are open and flag the session as Solo Play if not.
See page one post one of the solo v open mega thread. Your proposals have already been rejected by FD.
Because FD wants players to feel the sting of the consequences of their actions in the game. Otherwise you could create a character designed for pure ganking of noobs, and a legit trader.
Of course, the fact that they're trying to sit on two chairs at once kinda throws a wrench in those gears, since allowing to switch modes at will and log off during combat pretty much leaves any consequences at the players discretion. If you don't want to, you literally cannot be destroyed in this game.
It's not the ports. Install an IP blocker program and it will reject incoming connections that are not on a white list and you will only ever have to deal with players who have those IPs, anyone else simply can't connect to you. No way to check if IPs are being blocked because there is no central server to monitor P2P connections. Dunno, maybe have the client report if an attempted P2P connection was refused, but there could be other reasons for that and it all comes down to statistics.
Which means FD would have to act on unsubstantiated evidence. The same problem as with combat logging, really. Hard to track things when you have nothing to track them with.

Edit, misread.

This subject comes up a lot in this forum so you may find the replies you get verge on the grumpy side but to tackle the topic in another way, consider the following...

Try flying into a High Intensity Warzone or Large Signal Source in Solo and come back and tell me how much easier it was for you....
