Signed on a personal level as a compromise.
Problem
Fozzie SOV is contrived. You wave a wand that has a fixed cycle time. You can not augment your ship to improve damage and grind the structure down. You can not augment your ship to repair the structure faster. Shoot the Hairy Potthead fan who loves waving wands around.
Solution
- Cut carrier and dreadnaught DPS by 10% - Heavily nerf Titan and Super Carrier DPS. - Roll back to Dominion SOV and cut the hit points off that you no longer need.
Additionally, find a way to hard limit how many Supers and Titans an alliance can have active.
Causes for the stagnation
- No space for small independant corporations and alliances to grow big enough with the super / titan fleets to contest for space. - The ships were the problem. Not the structures.
Now you have ruined SOV for sub capitals. Our SOV has gone from building castles out of stone to building it out of plastic. It feels cheap, nasty and childish, catering to giggly little griefers that have too much energy and no patience.

High Sec needs a stepping stone to other spaces, where they can grow

Interesting. Phoebe saw much change and fragmentation. Fozzie SOV is seeing fewer and larger coalitions.

There is a huge gap between High Sec and Null Sec, while Low Sec is not bridging that.

Throwing the gold apple in, "You don't use it for mining and ratting, so you are not using it and deserve to lose it. This makes it easy for small alliances to get some space," seems to be the general counter argument.
1) Said many times, there is more than those two ways to use systems. 2) Easy into space, easy out. These systems are honey traps and make delicious snacks for the huge estabilished alliances to farm and feed upon.
This is not some amazing equality mechanics, it is annoying for defenders who are griefed and it is devastatingly crushing for the naive.

Because you don't care about it thats why you love it. For people who don't care about it and all they care about is griefing potential the new system sure is amazing no denying that. Now if that makes a good system thats a different question entirely. For emphasis. I think this is the motive behind most of the noise supporting Fozzie SOV.
P.S. Glasgow, learn to ASCII. GÖÑ

If they care enough about a system to put a couple of RLML Caracals and a damp Keres into it, then you won't. In other words, "Can you grief a system until they give up defending it or can you ECM until they give up griefing?"
I think at this point, you are harping on about the story you bought when Fozzie's team conceived this abortion and now you can't let it go.
"HTFU" "We are hard and bored / not interested."
Dominion SOV took how long for half the player base to be bored of it? How many years? Fozzie SOV has hit that point in three weeks.
It is SOV dumbed down and less engaging.

Check my post history, I... - create threads to try give miners more "stand and fight" rather than "dock or die". - support further Walking in Stations development. - would like to see T1 industrials become less paper thin. - am a logi anchor and occasional fleet commander for a Null Sec alliance. - lead a group that raids worm holes mostly for loot but we fit to PVP if we run into someone.
and I say that this Fozzie SOV is a step backwards because it is making the SOV mechanics childish and slow. You can no longer make a composition and fits for damage to grind faster. You can no longer improve your repair ships to fix the structures faster.
Now all you do is wave a wand from pretty much any ship.
Utter garbage.

In most low threat cases, let them RF it then see if they actually show up. If they do not then set the miners on the nodes, they love that boring stuff. If the reds show up then N+1 and wreck their ships.

I can't think of a faster way to get CCP to make changes than to mass troll sov holders. To be honest though it's only a matter of time if the CSM have already been called up on it. I am still expecting Goons. They are meant to take Provi in two days. Can they please hurry up and come do that?
