That's the obvious fix. Alt farming of any kind is not playing the game.

Why?
Because EVE?
Honest question. You are basically saying "All games should have all assets tradeable all the time". Not to start a huge argument, and I still know this will flare up, but because EVE is not a reason.
Especially with PSN accounts being completely different from EVE accounts, since, you know, they have to pay a subscription to alt farm.

Well, I would like to be able to have my Corp mates to be able to give components or trade them for isk. I am assuming that one of the future phases for rebooted PC will involve all corp warbarges somehow linking up for added benefits. For example, maybe you will be able to allocate a percentage of your warbarge production to go to the corp stockpiles. Either way, if components can be transferred to corp in the future, or individual mercs with simple player trading more imminently, in a large enough amount, then farming might be something we want to address now. As for those sinking money into their warbarges - imagine doing that on separate accounts thereby negating the need to pay for the upgrade timer to elapse.
An elegant way is to auto-donate a contribution to the corp warbarge, help yourself and help the corp at the same time, win win

Because auto taxing components would make some people choose to not be in a corp to avoid the tax. Auto tax also doesn't solve alt farming. Making warbarges persistent across accounts limits alt farming while still allowing free trade of components. Alt farming won't stop at components either, experimental weapons can be traded too. Alt farms again.
I think it was clear that the components would be cloned to the corp, not reduced by the auto-donation.
