In all of the Eve fanfest and Vegas videos i've seen,CCP declares its desire to make a sandbox style game.
A game where someone can build a castle and someone else can destroy it.
Imagine a sandbox,ok now imagine it square shaped and filled in with sand.
The original intent of Dust was to have this idea at its base, "we give you the tools,and you use them" they said at fanfest.
But by limiting the ability for suits to specialise in more than a single thing,CCP has taken their finger and drawn lines in the sand,essentially saying "you can sandbox within this narrow area".
So,lets say point A is the beginning of the line you're stuck in and point B is the end...you can sandbox from A to B or from B to A,but god forbid you try to go to C.
A way to erase those lines would be to have a carpet bonus per suit class,EG assaults receive weapons fitting reduction.
But REMOVE race specific bonuses and instead add them to the skill tree.
So if an amarr assault wants to use a MD effectively they can,the same goes for Min assault using a ScR.
This is the only way a true sandbox can be achieved.

2.What you propose would make having multiple suits obsolete because their unique bonus wouldn't matter.
3.Also, I think you've misunderstood the concept of sandbox because you used it when it has little to do with your actual argument. Customization =/= sandbox
1.Being good at repping then suddenly being a master of scans proves you're wrong.
Logis had their HP regeneration removed because they were better slayers than assaults.
So even CCP says you're wrong.
2.I love how you misquoted me. Each class would have a class specific bonus,but suit slot layouts wouldn't be the same.

3.Sandbox=freedom
Freedom=customization
So...
Sandbox=customization
You have to be the dumbest person i've met on the forums.

Also the connectivity to EVE through orbitals, PVE and a common market.
Once more of these points grow the amount of choice will only increase. We have to remember that this game is in permanent development.
When you are told you are limited to being good at one thing only,choice and freedom become an illusion.

It's good to see you've realised your limitations.
