Power creep is the unbalancing of a game from adding new content.
CCP is fixing the APEX dropsuits so they don't allow players to wield suits of above average power at a below average pricetag. That's a fair goal. They aren't taking away our ability to customize the APEX dropsuits, you must realize that much. We are actually dealing with issues, because we decided to let things that weren't planned to be modified, to be modified to improve UX.
ehhhhh. This won't affect all of the APEX equally. Fitting skillwskills will allow a few module upgrades OR a weapon upgrade. In the case of the opus if you swap out some of the fottings for MLT bpos the only change you can do to the main weapon is swapping to a standard asscram.
I would fiddle wuth hardlocking PG/CPU mods first. also once the SKINS go online you can actually phase out the BPO sales for other suits and make apex the gold standard.
Convert The other bpos over to the apex style and stop selling them and apex and some legacy dropsuits become the standard for BPOs.
Upgrade the MLT to ADV equivalent with the apex treatment and run from there.
There's never enough sh**posting going on, so let's add a few more teaspoons of the guy posting after me to the recipie!

I would advocate killing the lower tiers, making individual dropsuits cost 5k and increase the ISK cost of weapons and modules at ADV 10% higher and PRO 20-30% higher to compensate for the ISK cost loss on the suits themselves.
That way STD/MLT would be cheap/free and the higher tiers retain their equivalent costs.
Since ISK expenditures are a factor.
I use the word "just" loosely as I'm envisioning a database chore everyone is desperately yelling "not it!" Until one of them successfully roshambo's all comers (south park rules) and gets to proclaim who the poor bastard stuck with the job shall be.

Why must the Apex suits be changed, then changed again, and then changed again?
The Mission statement of the Dev team, as shared on the Biomassed podcasts by the CPM is very simple, and I quote:
"The mission of 2015 is to tick off Eruditus 920. To do this we will make a large portion of the playerbase happy and thus making him upset."
Mission accomplished CCP.
Mission accomplished.
