I addressed that issue already. I urge you to please go back and reread my post or perhaps elaborate either a fix or counterpoint as to why upsetting the job balance would be profitable for the economy.
To elaborate: If Rebels can Contra/Weed/and Food, they will end up being the goto farm class. If you take contra from them, they become the perfect stealth contrafarmer due to complete lack of audio detection and would also be completely self sufficient (they would never have to leave and all raid attempts on them become RANDOM by default unless the rebel actually did something completely foolish to get caught. Even worse, if they place it somewhere to get intentionally seen then they now are potentially promoting aggressive rp because they would be attempting to force a raid to happen.
That all being said, I completely agree with your logic that it is more realistic rp. Hell I support your thought train, bro. The problem lies in balancing the economy/job use/misuse and attempting to get more net roleplay gain. The presented idea that the rebels need that access in that specific job would lead to potentially less general rp, a power imbalance (rebels would beat out custom job/corleone hands down for functionality), potentially more rule (which means more bans which means less players in community), and actually could cause more damage to the economy.
If rebels truely wanted food to be grown, they could hire a "farmer" citizen to work the fields and support them. This means more player interactions, more rp job opportunities, and a stronger economy. Food growing in itself promotes Farming, Farmers markets, Grocery stores, wilderness survival, amish/quaker rp, ect. I think that route is much better for the community then allowing one underground job to have an advantage over another at this time.
That all being said, if you are serious about creating a more defined and improved rebel job set and getting them on a more realistic track, feel free to contact me, was working on that project for a few months before my demotion and my mind never stopped working on it and several other job reworks to add definition and realism to the gamemode.
