1) Selectable damage type is the ONLY saving grace for todays missile user. however CCP refuse to change the damn kinetic bonus to an universal one so we are forced to use kinetic if we want high damage..... however......

2) Gallente FOTM. T2 gallente have near 90% kinetic resists base.... freaking stupid. Missile boats now have to change damage type to either EM or Exp to do any sort of damage to them...... but wait......

3) RLML and RHML .... okay deimos on field switching to em damage.... 40 seconds later, you're either dead or ran away, cause you CANT change ammo types to be effective in 40 seconds. Or you can continue to shoot kinetic at the diemos as it laughs at you until you die.

4) CNR has more applicable damage to frigs and cruisers with cruise missiles than with RHML. This is stupid. Yes the ROF is faster on the RHML but how the heck is a BS sized weapon doing more per hit on a frig than a cruiser sized weapon!? WTF.

5) The Phoenix...... nuff said what a joke.

6) Torps even with a Vindi buddy webbing a hac you do jack all damage to it. Maybe we need to take a look at the size factor of ships and eliminating it as factor for missile damage, leaving speed and resistances the factors to missile damage. This would bring them in line with turrets and still be a little nerfed compared to them since a turret can still hit a ship for full effect based on transverse reguardless speed, while a missile would still be based on the speed. If a vindi can do full damage with neutrons to a frig sitting at zero why cant torps? Also doesnt it make sense that a larger explosion radius would in essence do more damage to an area than a smaller one?

I have a lot of other examples and references, I could go on for days. I just wish you guys would start taking some more outside input again. Your view on certain things are way to narrowed and focused to be able to see everything.

While I'm glad it makes you laugh, comedy aside drones aren't even close to missiles or gunnery. You see drones are THE universal secondary weapon-system for all factions bar none. Missiles rarely if ever make a secondary weapon, usually on Caldari and Minmatar hulls and really ineffective at that. Drones however are vital for larger ships ability to defend against frigates.
One drone type tracks like missiles, the other like gunnery. However their individual destructibility and travel-time really change their functionality/implementation far far away from missiles or gunnery. Sentries are stationary. Other drones are brawlers and can be really fragile have no place outside the smallest of gangs.

So sure EvE is just a giant pile of SP-spaghetti, if that makes sense for you go for it.
But to paint Gallente as the sad panda of SP is dishonest at best, often needing drones and gunnery is just not the case. Yes they have hulls that function with both but still have plenty of ships that focus on one. But gallente the very best progression. You unlock the vexor hull, profit, and go straight to the most OP space potatoe dominix, now you have drone skills which are needed by all races for cruiser and up, or you can ignore them and focus on hybrids and focus on the only faction with effective hybrid progression in all tiers. A useful hybrid boat in every hull class of which the BS can be flown with minimal drone skills for a long time.
Gallente:armor, drones, hybrids.
Caldari:Shields, missiles, hybrids, drones.
Minmatar:projectiles, missiles, drones, shields, armor. (and since recently a pretty broken hull progression).
Amarr: lasers, drones, missiles, armor.
Somehow you keep making other peoples points... Gallente have always had a very efficient SP progression.
