Could be. x7s are currently in the top meta (strongly but not overwhelmingly), and FFG may do something to tone them back a bit and widen the meta a bit. The goal though will be to use a light touch, as with your idea above, so they don't overly-nerf a ship they only recently fixed with the Veterans pack. Jumpmasters just got the Deadeye nerf and they're still top meta, just not dominant anymore.

I'm actually wondering if Jumpmasters and Defenders are considered fine now by FFG, or if they're considering more adjustments. They rule the tournaments, and usually the only other fleets are explicit counters to them. But they can be countered, so they may not warrant additional errata. Kinda depends on FFG's goals and long-term balancing strategy. They might just keep releasing more and more powerful ships (as an intentional power creep), while giving new options to older ships to keep them on the balance curve.
