Seriously. 8 months and nothing? Come on...
Here's my solution, one last time: Establish 2 tiers of game modes - 1 for MLT-ADV and 1 for Unrestricted Collective Meta Level (Collective Meta Level = combined total Meta Levels from suit, weapons, equipment) The eligibility for the lower tier would be for dropsuits and vehicles built with a Collective Meta of 10 or less (just an example #), creating a bracket for lower skill players. The second tier would be focused on ADV-Officer classes. No Collective Meta restrictions, but a warning that you are entering fire and brimstone otherwise. All players would be able to compete at either level. In the lower tier, Vets could build ISK efficient fittings and put their actual gun game to the test against the noobs and the noobs wouldn't be so desperately outclassed by gear alone. On the other hand, noobs with huge egos could test their mettle and the state of their fittings against the vets in the upper tier.
Metaphorically speaking, it's like a swimming pool. A shallow end and a deep end. They share the same water and though the shallows may be for the little ones it's also a nice place for the adults to hang out and chill. The deep end is full of crazy divers and full grown people with a couple of kids trying to see how long they can hold their breath and try to touch the bottom.
This could be easily implemented with the systems we already have in place and not exclude any one particular part of the playerbase.

I can't remember the last time I played a match that wasn't decided in the first minute and a half and redlined before the losers were even into their MCC's armor.

The vehicle thing is easily factored in, as you said, but not until there are all tiers of all vehicles (including those Speeders we were supposed to have before 2.0) available.
