Too Drunk to Smash
I agree.This is the appropriate conclusion, however I am against nerfing these characters. I would like to see the meta develop further first, but since new patches are inevitable with the coming with dlc characters, I would rather have the low tiers buffed. Nintendo hasn't seemed to keen on this though, *sigh*.
The key issue I see here (and the reason I feel it's never going to get better for heavies) is that we'd basically need to see Project M-esque changes for heavies to ever really rise in tiers in the face of characters like Shiek. Those changes, however, would massively overpower heavies in casual play, which is 90% of all SSB play, so we'd never see it happen.
Even if EVERYONE got buffed, heavies would still be combo food, thus negating their primary advantage.
