It's the most popular class in the game. It was the most popular in the WOTC surveys, and it's the most popular from the 528 data a year later.
Given it is the most popular, for whatever reason that might be, that means it really does not need an "official" fix of any kind. WOTC accomplished their goal with the class - an overwhelming majority like it, and not only like it but seem to like it more than any other class.
Which means it's literally last on the priority list of "official fixes".
So if you have issues with the fighter, and it's perfectly fair to have issues with the fighter, then it will have to come through a house rule. You will never, ever, ever persuade enough people to make enough fuss to get WOTC to make a change in their most popular class. That's reality. The rest is just counting angels that can dance on the head of a pin.
So just work on a house rule that works for you. What more is there to do on the topic beyond that? You're not going to persuade many people you're right, and you're not going to accomplish anything meaningful if you do persuade a few people, so what exactly is the point of belaboring this point further? Particularly given people are now to the point they're just repeating the same points over and over again using slightly different words, I cannot imagine there is much sport or fun left in it anyway.
