GNB's cart economy was broken and it's much better now. The job felt absolutely awful in any content that didn't allow for 100% uptime.
Yeah, this.
You don't even need to quote ultimate, I think P8S P2 was also weird if you played with your cartridges without thinking.
You had to hold your burst strikes to ensure having 3 cartridges at your next 60s without having to use the AoE combo, which is a massive DPS loss.

Depending on boss movement of the next savage, we might see different use of Bloodfest than the 100% uptime rotation.
