While I have time I'll answer some of your points.
1. Move Pearce flying 100nm out west. Takes to much time in a PC9 to do that and who wants to eject that far out to sea. You may have heard about the odd shark out there?
2. Moving bases. Are you going to pay for that? To save a few minutes getting to a airport?
3. Handful of aircraft operating 9-5. Then whats your problem if they only take up the airspace for 8 hours? Like me saying RPT pilots eat only first class meals and do one sector a day and get paid more than a company CEO. Comments like that just make you look arrogant.
By all means have a discussion but don't sound like a tosser when you are doing it!
