The skill points granted in BL1 allowed a player to effectively customize a character unique from others' builds. Unfortunately, the level cap increases granted by subsequent DLC's meant a surfeit of skill points, flooding the skill trees and watering down character uniqueness. How does GBX intend to raise the level cap in future DLCs while maintaining the promised skill tree uniqueness?

Of course, the question presupposes that BGX will raise the level cap / add skill points.

(I have a hunch that Badass ranking and points may have something to do with this.)
