Godin, you do seem to be the only tanker that has an issue with the current set up

So like an assault dropship
Seriously though, if you want to turn the ADS into a transport role, then create a 'gunship', we can use the same model (as they're doing the same thing for tanks) remove the extra seats, give it more ehp and everybody's happy

ADS's Role's in a reasonable world: Primary- Transporting fireteams and Giving said fireteams fire support Secondary- Being able to scatter, distract, kill, etc. infantry and smaller vehicles, and to be able to distract larger vehicles from your team. note: Firing back with AV or HAV's will endanger ADS's, and make them run off, or pin them down.
I'll ask again, can we create your version of the DS and add a gunship?

Then since no one would use your new ADS can we just call the current set up a Gunship and skip all the extra work

Also, the problems with ADS's vs. HAV's would be similar, most likely worse on a Gunship, so that would still need fixing.
Sounds like your issue is with the HAV blind spot, not ADS firepower

Godin, there is no need for your ADS in this game as it is, this is why it is a gunship and why CCP kept it in the game
Ambush - not needed Domination - not needed (except getting to the point in the first place) Skirmish - larger city based maps could benefit when going to outside points but why not use a cheaper LAV or get everyone to spawn on the point.

Wait, you say that, but then believe that a Gunship is? Why is that? Ambush-Gunship isn't needed Domination- Gunship isn't needed Skirmish- Gunship isn't needed.
You could say the same thing about tanks.
Maybe my choice of words was poor, since technically the only thing needed in objective based matches is a suit that can hack.
What I mean is, they offer no benefit.

But they're super effective against tanks!

Ah, but they can attack from above whist in the HAV blind spot. I've heard it works quite well
