Is bright engrams what you get from microtransactions? You can already get that with in game skill and playtime because you get one every time you fill your xp bar at level 20. And what you get from them is shaders, ghost shells with minor bonuses, different skins for sparrows and space ships, armor with 10 defense, different skins for exotic weapons if you've gotten them from playing otherwise, emotes, emblems, and blue mods. True, blue mods can be useful, but you can get that with in game skill and playtime by farming blues and leveling up the gunsmith. The rest is just cosmetic.
It's true that microtransactions can be bad, but unless there's another place in game with microtransactions than the bright engrams that I haven't discovered, there's probably other games that the microtransaction protesters might want to focus on first.

in destiny, they might keep eververse (it is canon lore) but remove real-money entirely and speed up the rate that you get them aka, they are earned 10x faster by default, and 20x faster on a DoubleXP weekend

Ya but unless one is ocd about making all one's weapons and armor the same color, or getting a ghost shell with the perfect set of bonuses, there really isn't a reason to want that many that fast.

no, but i'd assume that'd be the ratio for people who use money VS free users
