@Crowella yes, one may only buy kp with one's boosted goods. As you mentioned, people could trade for their boosts and use them to buy kp rather than dumping them like swill into the Trader in the form of the myriad cross-tier abortions from hell that greet our eyes every time we open the Trader. (yes, we all know some cross-tier is inevitable for various reasons...no point in going over all that again.) This would reduce the amount of tier3 goods floating around because most of it must come from high chapter cities. Low chapter cities either do not have Taverns or similar buildings or in the cases where they do, the buildings only produce a fraction of what high chapter goods producing buildings do.
The real question you were getting at I think is "To what degree would using boosted goods to buy kp lower the oversupply of tier3 in the trader?" I believe you said this in so many words...so on that I agree completely with you. It is a question open to debate, since we do not have the data that Inno has. It also reminds me of something @SoggyShorts said about how we all have an incomplete picture of the trade situation since we only see up to 200 players in our traders, since trade isn't global ( I paraphrase ). We cannot answer this question, but we can speak to other players to develop some sense of a greater picture of what is going on through communicating shared experiences.
