Honestly, much ado about nothing. Cap (mis)usage is the least of this community's problems.
BSes are good for organized events, rp platforms and mission grinding. And that's about it. A couple of half-awake bomber pilots with nova torps and a minimum of dodging skills will take down a BS with ease.
Cruisers are great support vessels, with an emphasis on support. Alone they are meat for the grinder.
If the OP and those sharing his viewpoint really want to restrict cap usage, particularily BS usage, then I guess they're prepared for a much smaller playerbase.
As someone who's been here awhile, I think (fixable) problems are the following:
1) Sirius is too large in relation to the playerbase.
2) PoBs are too labor-intensive as well as being next to indestructible.
