Conveniences like port books began to take the need to interact with other players out.....actually started with the nexus in luclin and the bazaar...

This is a good thing. Nothing is more unpleasant than dealing with the used car salesman resellers in EC.
Nexus I always find as a funny example. The nexus portals worked on a 15minute recharge. Meaning you could show up right as it's going off (0 min wait) or you could show up just after its going off (15min wait). The average wait you have is 7.5minutes from one of five zones across the world.
Whereas you can catch a dial a port on P99 in usually well under 7.5minutes and they'll grab you from any of 20+ portal locations plus central hubs like EC or OT.
As far as convenience goes, P99 has it better than Luclin port situation went, and the social interaction most porters receive in their porting duties is almost nil.
