The flaw is trying to straighten out the Shield stats on all frames CA >> MN >> GA >> AM
I replied to the CPM thread saying Armour suit Shield stars could "jump off a cliff" and while being a sh!tposter I was making a point, there should not be a curve between the 4 races Shield base stats, as 2 of them are not meant for Shield tanking.
Shield base regen/delay is Shield tanking... normalizing this between all races.. just makes 4 ways to do the same thing, sounds good for balance and a Dust514 additon of COD, like many players I feel that current Shield tanking is OK, it just requires a different mentality and fitting setup. Normalizing this sounds pretty boring for gameplay imo..
The Speed:HP curve that Ratmaster put in place worked, as speed:hp total is a constant on all 4 suits
- Tanking styles are not a constant, as they should be set apart for Shield > Armour 
- want short regen delays with good regen amounts, you Shield tank
- want constant regen underfire, you Armour tank ..
The proposal aims to set current Shield suit regen stats on Armour suits.. just NO!

Shields are my own, and many mercs primary playstyle.. they work !!!
Tidying up the difference between Scout > Assault > Logistics > Commando > Sentinel +1
As for Recharge/Delays, the proposal made so far does not look good, it equalizes the Shields too much between all 4 races so while a Shield suit is waiting to regen, an Armour suit has 20hp/s reps constant and 20-30 Shields in 4-5sec.. NO.
If AM/GA want Shield stats, cough up some low slots to fit Shield mods, the base stats should not hand them to you.
Reasonable Shield regen stats, CA 35 > MN 30 >> GA 20 > AM 15
The have the delays in favour of MN > CA > AM > GA (for the life on me, do NOT have Armour suit delays less than 6 sec)
For me, Gal having higher amounts of Shield regen and longer delay than Amarr would work, I am less sure on placing MN ahead of CA on delays but it would leave CA higher amount of regen with longer delay than MN.. setting those apart there
