I think that you should be able to close down a CoT if you control it, (or at least reduce it to one province size). This way you could go and close down CoT's to get more wealth to your actual one. The re-opening cost of CoT could be 500d or something.

It's an interesting idea. In fact, the whole fact of un-doing stuff would be a nice feature un EU3: lowering fortification levels, taking out a bailif or whatever.
The problem with closing down a CoT would be that countries that hold a fair share of its trade would be pissed at you

If you are suggesting that the closed CoT's provinces then be routed to another CoT you own, this is a bad idea. People would only use it to shut down CoTs where they are facing a lot of competition, or direct trade to a CoT in the South Pacific that only three other states know about, creating a super CoT with no competition for a monopoly.
Wouldn't it defeat that idea of CoTs being reflections of focii of trade independent of government control? I mean, you don't make CoTs - why should you (would you) destroy them?
Beyond the idea of creating a super monopoly or limiting the trade of other states I can see no benefit to this, anyway. CoTs provide merchants, tarriffs and monopolies - that make more merchants.

Of course but IIRC this feature won't be implemented...
What he said.
I think it's a good idea (though posted earlier many times) but I think it won't be in.
