Can you please link to an explanation of these mechanics? I knew about soft ac caps by class but how level affects AC on bronze vs banded is new to me.

No, we can't. AC caps scale with levels, this much we know. We know they're present on P1999 because the developers have said so (assuming they're truthful--a fair assumption for this sort of discussion), but they don't tell us the specifics and nobody's done full-scale testing through the entire level range. Best you can do is fight for awhile wearing the bronze, fight for awhile wearing the banded, and decide for yourself if any observed difference is enough for you to care about.
Because P1999 is a custom host, data from EQ-live is useless. Such data can show us how things should ideally behave, but not necessarily how things DO behave on P1999. In some cases alterations are deliberate, for example shields on P1999 are reported to have the post-classic shield overcap bonus.
