...but who will be knowledgable enough to determine a effective restriction, and shoot straight enough to share this info with rule makers and non 325 drivers.

Good question. Maybe we could ask some of those SSB Miata drivers who got their butts handed to them at the Runoffs by the Z4's with plates in place. Or maybe we could ask the member of the CRB who won a national race in Denver this summer (in SS while racing with his A/C on and his restrictor plate in place. Yeah, I'm sure we would get good info there.

Seriously, do plates really work that well at leveling the field? I understand that they work well for limiting top speed. That's well documented. But what about low speed torque? The torque that lets you pull out of the corner. It sure didn't look that way to me.

Why do cars making 150-200 WHP need to weight 2700-3200lbs?

I don't know about the 3000lb cars, I don't drive one, but quite a few cars are at or over minimum weight now with no ballast and nothing left to remove. Reducing their spec line weight is meaningless.
