People are against respecs because they have this imaginary image of DUST in their head.
They think it's not a basic lobby shooter.

If you add, remove, and alter core skills, respecs must be made.
To say a vehicle user would not originally pick up skills that give 25% off of cooldown and add 25% to duration is idiotic at best. If you're going to shift around the base things, respecs are inevitable. Decisions that were made before might not have been made in light of new CORE skills, or removed CORE skills, altering how your SP would have been originally spent were you able to make careful deliberate choices without CCP randomly screwing everything up.
It's not as simple as the Vehicle command or Upgrade tree getting changed, or dropsuit for that matter. One change can effect everything, and to just dismiss that is foolish. If people have put in their time and $$, they deserve to spend their SP how they want in light of the new changes to CORE skills and mechanics.
To expand upon that, look at the HUGE amount of new turret skills for vehicles. Plenty of SP may have been spent elsewhere since these skills did not exist, and thus, were a non factor. Now, they do exist, they are core skills, and they will be essential to vehicle drivers. This alone is cause for a respec, simply because any SP spent outside of vehicles or on vehicle skills not related to a primary build would likely have never been spent in light of these changes, and would instead be allocated into turrets.

Maybe they can use the extra dough to hire more Devs, but I don't need one, and if CCP decides to change things drastically I know they'll do right by us.
There a lot of good reasons for repecs, I'm simply refer to the people who feel as though as a mechanic and a regular thing that there should be more respecs. Once all the racial variants and all the cores are balanced out there shouldn't be anymore, there is no need for them.
Once CCP has all the core skills mechanics and assets in place, no full respecs will ever be needed.
However, gradual reallocation of SP will always be the way to go, allowing you to pay $$ to slowly take SP out of any given skill. This has already been at least looked at by CCP in a positive light, but for now, CCP needs to get this games foundation in place, respec us, and go from there.
