Why is this subject so popular these days? influencer did a video or something?

I really would like SE to address this directly, even if they end up taking no action on it. I remember poking and prodding this system back in Shb and reaching uneven conclusions.

As far as CT is concerned, I agree that it needs to be changed, but seeing SE's rationale lately I don't think a simple ilvl adjustment will be enough. I think there is a possibility of a CT redesign after they finish with Duty Support.
