Having to justify flying Defenders isn't fun :p

I would have fun with just a Delta with an Ion Cannon flying within a TIE Swarm.

I've also been a huge fan of the Tractor Beam, flying the G1-A with one in a Store Championship the week it came out. Another less hipster thing that I like to fly. It also doesn't fare so badly against K-Wings, being able to smash them around with the Tractor Beam. I think it subtly counters a lot of the x7 counters.

I really wish I could squeeze lightweight frame in there, but apart from dropping the TIE/D to TIE/x7 or the FCS I don't really see how, and I see the FCS as vital, particularly with Vessery and I rather like the Tractor Beam as mentioned.

If you're cool with the Dorsal Turret, then all the more power to you.

As a note, even if you dislike Dash with Kanan, I really think you'd benefit from just swapping Nien with Inspiring Recruit. Kanan is really helpful though in clearing distance.

I live in the most populous part of Canada, the one people are always trying to separate themselves from, particularly Toronto. I actually live in a popular tourist spot for Torontonians to do their weekend vacations, so I kinda understand the sentiment, especially when they try to drive up the mountain without snow tires on.

I'm used to trying to disassociate myself from the States though :p
