My experience is the same as Deep Six. Escorts are aggressive until you get inside their screen. They won't go around a merchant to come after you.
IMO the easy, normal, hard, etc setting at a carreer start is just a baseline for the realism options, which you can change or fine tune later anyway.
It'll be interesting to see if Neal can get the devs to respond.
Another Question I have is why a selection for how much renown you want at a carreer start? There seems to be no reason not to take all you can get. At least, no penalty for not doing so.
