Pretty good overview, and I agree with most of it.

One slight correction though... You said:

Hand Cannons:
Hawkmoon is the same as it was, but for some reason people think it got buffed. It didn't, really, as far as PvP is concerned. It's okay but not great.

It actually did get buffed a little bit though.

From the April Update Patch Notes:

Hawkmoon
...
Increased Range base stat (by +10)

It's a subtle change, but that extra range has made it a little easier to consistently hit your shots. It's nowhere near where it was early in Y1 (and as much as I love Hawkmoon, that's a good thing) - but it definitely feels more consistent and pleasant to use overall than it did two weeks ago. I've definitely found it to be more viable, perhaps even verging on dominant, in PvP since the patch.
