If you are 5 battleships, fof, drones (just have to be out before the falcon activates modules on you) and smartbombs. Some might not be easy ways to get rid of a falcon that jamms, but they are still options.

Duh?

Any falcon pilot with half a brain will be sitting 150(ish)km away from the battle. Drones do no good against it. Nor will FOF ---

A few ways to avoid this. ECCM, drones, damping or jamming the Falcon before it gets you, or warping out.

I think they were thinking "Hey, let's make a patch! Balance a few things, iron out a few bugs, ya know! That will make people happy! And on top of that, let's boost the Falcon a bit, just to annoy that pesky Daram Thakk'ar".
10 isk says that's what they were thinking.

Defensively, sure. But falcons in roaming gangs have to go through gates. Any time they spend warping out from a gate and back in at range is time they're not supporting their gang. On the other hand, they can engage directly at closer range.
Positioning is very important to an ecm pilot as the ships have such weak tanks, part of fighting ecm boats is denying them that advantage.

Your argument is flawed. This is why: What you just described was a PVP battle involving multiple ships.
If a lone falcon jammed a ship from 150km 1v1 it would result in absolutely nothing.
In a PVP battle with multiple ships, sure the falcon can sit back there at 150km jamming. But the 2 sniping megathrons can destroy it in 7 seconds flat. Or the ship with a couple sensor dampeners could cut it's range below 80km, effectively disabling it. Etc.

Why on earth would you want to use a Falcon in solo pvp?

Eh? This change has been on SISI for ages - which rock have you been under??!
Oh - and just to make your day better, ECM modules now use 40% less cap so that Falcon can now jam you for longer.
We're going waaaay back to 2006 listeners to the ECM era, that right - its back...
