Few thoughts:

slowtech is AR killer. That makes another race banned - AR, IT, PP, CA. 2 races handicapped. 2 races(WM,SS) have their technology advantage neutralized by acces to scraps that can make things even.

AR is not banned, and is still highly viable in this scenario. Joat and IS are nerfed because they are OP to begin with. WM and SS advantages are not solely in their starting tech levels (those are the least of their advantages). My suggestions taken together make for a relatively even field for all 7 PRT.

given the above that means the only untouched race would be SD??

Adam's case is overstated. I have seen mighty AR empires in slow tech games. With the benefit of no AccBBS, a skilled AR player can do just fine. The kvetches about WM and SS are largely without merit, as the prescribed scrapping does not favor any PRT over another. Also, Con is much more important for unlocking WM potential, while Prop can be integral for SS growth and security; they stand to benefit from scrap as much as anyone (except AR maybe). My PRT is host.

Trust me
