Speedcharges in RVR

I know it is most likely an unpopular opinion, but the QOL Speedcharges from BPs needs to go. At least in RVR zones.
The road to hell is paved with good intentions and I think this can be a good example for that. While an awesome QOL feature while leveling and pve in general, it becomes an unbalanced mess the second you step into RVR.
All classes are balanced around their skills and skillsets. Look at Speedclasses. With the Charges you basically give everybody their ability and killing the normal RvR in the process. Nonspeeders used to be at their portal keeps and roam the bridges small scale. You had an complete PVP-Enviroment there. Every bridge was used and populated, the way to the docks camped. If you wanted speed you searched for a tower. If you lost speed you needed to get it there, otherwise tough luck.
Deserterspots are a nice addition tho. They get RVR in places where they didn't used to by besides keepfights.
So in conclusion I think that Speedcharges need to be unusable in RVR or have a loooooong CD like 15min or such.
