The Gal Logi with its precision bonus to the active scanner forces all suits to make a significant sacrifice in order to stay un scanned.
I think there will be an additional change after Charlie if there are still scout tanking problems, or if any other problems arise that are not foreseen.

At the current pace there is just not a fair representation of all races because some suits just have better bonuses which leaves other suits rendered useless and when others mention the fact , their thoughts and opinions are simply pushed aside .
You simply can not have balance if two of the four dominate , there needs to be a system in place where all suits of every race can perform and where an oversaturation of one race , like Gal's and Amarr for instance in the heavy role or Min and Gal in the Logistic role ... can be avoided .
You can't call it balanced when you have an oversaturation of one or two races in any role when you have a choice of four and the other two are greatly under-represented .
I abridged your post.
Your point is valid, and that is why the changes in Charlie are what they are. A scanned scout is a dead scout, and charlie allows for all scouts to be unscannable.
Part of the problem is that the changes are so drastic that CCP is afraid of making too many in one go, and rightly so.
More adjustments will come in Delta once we have a chance to mess with Charlie.

a scanned scout dosnt last long on the TACNET their small sig and skills remove them from TAC much faster then medium or heavys..
What? You are either on or you are not on. There is no in between with current scanning mechanics. The only caveat would be when someone is dampened equal to passive precision of someone else and then activate an adv or proto cloak. This does not work if you are actively scanned prior to cloaking, nor dampened enough that the cloak bonus means anything. And as has already been discussed, Minmatar and Amarr can't beat a Cals max precision and are rendered obsolete as a result.

I have about 200 to 250 ehp. Most weapons don't need to get much of a lock on me or have any sort of accuracy to kill me. Besides, you can't out strafe someone that knows you are coming, because anything outside of a meter or two is going to be too great a distance to run faster than they can turn.
How many people do you think wait until you are up on them before turning to shoot?
Scouts should be masters of flanking and ambushing. The reason you only see tanked scouts is because they are going to be scanned anyways, so they might as well put on enough ehp to get in the straight up fights they are forced into.
Shared scanning = HP>all
