NO.
The groundbreaking act of bringing prototype level suit BPOs was justified by the fact that they can not be edited!
That was how the community accepted their introduction.
In the opening weeks they were editable due to a bug. Even though it was not the end of the world, most agreed that it was too powerful and had to be fixed.
Looking at both sides of the coin.
Even Aurum one.

In fact I'm pretty sure C.C.P. intended it with the last hot fix.
Means when the apex suits were first introduced. Yes they announced they were uneditable yet the were. And as I heard, they had 1000 PG and CPU as well.... =P

This is a big payout buff for the masses. It lets the cheap solo dudes who get rolled match after match put on something more competitive. New players only have to worry about skilling up the suit to take advantage of bonuses. They can prioritize more worthwhile core skills while having the same number of slots to work with as a vet. Only a glutton for punishment at this stage of Dust would still be holding on to ideals that obviously aren't appealing in an asset loss FPS.
Mmkay, no asset loss in a asset loss fps. MMkay.

For the most part, you are correct. But a lot of us in the community who accepted their introduction also accepted alternatives. I can't remember what those alternatives were exactly since it was so long ago, but I think it involved either meta-level locks or slashing the CPU/PG availability as we see now. I have been running faction warfare recently and I still haven't seen any APEX suits dominating the match. In fact, some of the APEX suits I see are still easy to kill as was made apparent by me being able to kill them effectively with a pair of ZN-28 Nova Knives. Even the sentinel APEX suits were easy for me to handle. They are just too gimped to be OP.
They were too gimped.
Tune up to Amarr Assault apex and re-evaluate your position...

They were too gimped. Tune up to Amarr Assault apex and re-evaluate your position... I don't think I'll be acquiring the Amarr APEX anytime soon given that I fight for the Gallente and Minmatar factions only. I don't fight for the Amarr or Caldari.
Loyalty APEX maybe but there is a possibility of AUR APEX open for everyone willing.
