Unpopular opinion: Put pre-order armors in the Superstore.

We pay ~$10 USD per armor currently in the superstore. Pre-orders paid $0 for the preorder armors. So, everyone would be able to get the pre-order armors, but at the above Super Citizen price of ~$30.

To naysayers: Is over a year of exclusive access and $30 of free gear not enough compensation for your "Yes" decision? Why not? Keep in mind that most people who pre-ordered have probably already stopped playing the game, and that every single other armor and cosmetic has been available on an unrestricted basis. If your argument is that you had to be there on day 1 to get the pre-order armor, that's incorrect. You could have ordered the game 1 second post release and have not gotten it.

EDIT: The additional purchases would also help support the game without additional dev work.

The only defense I can think of at this stage is ego.
