You've got to look at it objectively. The Nex has basically been out there on its own as the only relatively effective ranged weapon for every version except those where the MG was over buffed (2.3 and 2.5.2). On top of that it has always been heavily used at all ranges.
And now this balance makes other weapons in general less effective at range further. (More spread and less damage on MG, less speed more droop on mortar, less range on electro I believe, etc.) So how could it be fair or sane to not do the same to the Nex?
Speaking of which, why are lifetimes on projectile weapons so much shorter? It used to be like 30 seconds and now it's more like 10 or so.
