Poe has legitimately been over-nerfed

When the initial nerf to Poe (tenacity and expose) was announced, I was one of many who objected, because these were not the things that made him overpowered: what did that was the combination of his high speed, taunt and turn meter removal. What I and others feared would happen is that the changes would not address the problem, leading to future nerfs that would combine to go too far and over-nerf him.
Well, we didn't even need to wait: it happened immediately. We never got to observe the small changes because of major changes in game mechanics that happened at the same time. And so what we feared is exactly what has happened: rather than one quick and decisive change to bring him into line, a combination of small nerfs and changes to the game have nickel-and-dimed him to far less effectiveness than he had before.
Basically, the changes to the game in general were enough to deal with Poe:

• With the changes to how speed works he was automatically nerfed; he goes after many characters that before he "tied" with due to the "turn system" that is now gone.
  
• Ability leaders now work and his faction doesn't have one, so he goes after even more characters.
  
• His turn meter removal can be resisted, where it couldn't before.
  

These were all that was necessary, and arguably even these have made him a shadow of what he was. They make the additional specific nerfs (reducing his tenacity, expose, speed and other attributes) overkill.
@CG_JohnSalera - Please consider reversing some or all of these character-specific nerfs. Thank you.

1) It's still too early too see how changes affected him. I see no difference on my server. People still use him.
2) The speed changes nerfed A LOT other characters. (Especially the slower ones in turn 8 and 9) Why everyone only cares about Poe? What happened to the sense of balance among all characters? Why none cares about Coruscant Police or Mob enforcer or ewok scout? Why none cares that other tanks like royal guard which are x10 times more useless than Poe?
3) Poe's high speed brought other issues to the game. Not all characters have the dps of Leia, GS and FOTP, but they have ability blocks, stuns, etc to compensate. How are they supposed to use them to block other characters if Poe pops a taunt for 2 turn as soon as game starts? And reduce enemy's turn meter too, and expose some also.
4) Some people whine because their droid team is now "useless" and their ig88 dies too fast. Well, sorry that your ig88 doesn't live long enough to rape my team with his poggle buff while i sit helpless and watch.

I would support a Poe buff ONLY if other tanks were better then him. Which then it would be the most common thing to do.
So guys please stop with the "MY Poe nerfed, MY team is now useless, MY MY MY" and think about the total game balance. We have so many other tank that are practically useless. They buffed Mace and he is still useless. Why all the nerf/buff forums have been around Poe?
