There is no more unlearning feature and there is no way to delete your character yourself, unfortunately. Fiddling with the savegame you or your serveradmin can, though.

No, it's our choice of game design to which respeccing is very detrimental. Of course you can always create a mod for it.

There is ways to do that, but ... they're not fun, haha

it is never good when you take the idea literally.
This game is promising, but if the priority is what the developers want instead of the fun of the players, it will continue to decline. It is not fun to simulate a boring and tedious life, so there are games.
The game is not declining at all. The goal of Eco is to simulate a society based on the design pillars of economy, ecology and government. Stuff is meant to be as realistic as it can be. Of course we can't make everything totally realistic, but we do make design choices to make the society simulating possible - and respeccing skills makes it impossible, as it affects economy very badly. I understand that you may not have fun with a game like this, but lots of people, including me have. I guess that's also the reason why people play simulator games simulating their day jobs after their job. It's a simple thing of target groups and goals. Eco was always meant to be a unique game with a specific vision and design. We take player feedback serious and often implement suggestions and QoL features - but the game design and direction is already set. If we would do something else, this game would not be Eco.
