Proficiency needs to buff the opposite damage. So assault rifle proficiency gives it 3% damage to armor per level.
I agree with the majority of your post. 2/5 would be a fine slot layout, and Amarr assaults having less slots than everyone else is archaic and stupid.
However, couple of problems:
No, Amarr are not meant to be 'the best armour tankers in the game'. They are armour focused with a tendency towards buffer while the Gallente are armour focused with a tendency towards active - hence the Amarr having a larger armour HP base and the Gallente having some base reps.
Proficiency buffing the opposite damage immediately removes any point in having different damage types.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

Amarr are not able to get higher Armor than gallante at this curret state of the game, the gal havy can get 1200+ armor with 1 armor rep per sec while amarr gets like 1185 with no rep, the amarr assault can get 747 max with no reps which is equivalent to the max gal scout gets and gal scout get's 3 armor rep per sec. Also, they need to fix bonus ASAP, i find my self more successful with a militia heavy with CR than proto Amarr assault with proto SCR.
Indeed, they're not able to. That's bad and needs to change. The Amarr heavy really ought to have been a 4L suit. The Amarr assault -at least- needs another low slot.
But... unsuccessful with a proto SCR and that monstrous heat bonus? I'm unsure what to think. It's easily one of the most terrifyingly powerful bonuses I've ever used.
Admittedly, sticking a CR on a heavy is pretty much the height of cheesemode given how absurdly good the CR is and the easy cheap HP you can get from the heavy.

Slots def need work though, but you could say that about most of the medium frames, tbh.
The bonus works for the scrambler. It's probably my favourite assault bonus as a result.

That has long since been fixed.
It came from the passive skills bug which also prevented you from spawning in at full health.

Then DUST died.
