Difficulty of normal content.

I sympathize with the more casual player but the game should be designed around what the median player desires. For a fairly long time the dev team's read seemed to be that the median player wanted something on the easier side for normal mode content but the reaction to ShB and EW told the dev team that hey, maybe the median player is actually a bit closer to this opposing side. So they're trying that out. The total aggregation of everyone's opinions on this level of difficulty for normal mode content will be taken in when it is time to design the next expansion's content. It's important to have these conversations to direct the future of the game. For my part I am sincerely hopeful they continue on the current trajectory. DT's normals are a great spot for normals to be, and I'm hoping that the silent majority who have long been kind of coddled by normal mode content are finding this new normal to be rather enticing are considering dipping their toes into the Savage or Ultimate pool for the first time. Experiencing that kind of content and finding some enjoyment in it can only be a good thing, can only increase your love of the game.
