The general consensus was that Machinst was the worse physical ranged DD in 4.0. Damage ceiling was lower and required more effort to play effectively compared to Bard. Its cumbersome implementation of resources and abilities is one of the reasons. It also offered none of the utility that Bard did. In this sense, the analogy is that MCH is a strictly worse version of bard. It was my "button" that I enjoyed playing and had fun with even though bard was superior to it.

I get it though. Critical thinking isn't many peoples strong suit.
