Which is better:
-Buff every single weapon in the game which would take a lot of time which could be used to fix other things ( *cough* crucible).
-Or... Balance the weapon so it is still effective but it isn't an insta-win.

Nf and LH are not insta-win weapons as it is. Strong, sure, but absolutely do not win every 1v1 engagement. Human error will always be prevelant as will hit registry delay and as such, 3 tap kills do not happen as often as everyone presumes and the minute you miss that first or second crit, you are using a glorified trust.
-
Luna and NF are the closest thing to insta-win. Two people with perfect aim, NF still wins. Out guns auto rifles at the same range, pulse rifles, and literally 3 taps like a 180RMP but shoots faster. Primary speaking, NF-LH are insta-win.

I have over 7000 crucible kills on my NF, believe me, it's insta win on paper, not in practice. I've been outgunned numerous times, if it's insta-win, i should have never lost even a single engagement.
-
Tell me then, why does Luna/NF outperform every other primary weapon? Also I said their the closest thing to insta-win.

It’s their ease of use combined with their fast ttk. If they were insta win then they why are they not the only weapon used in the PC meta? Ace, Thorn and Last Word all compete due to them having less recoil/bloom on PC. I think consoles need this to change before we start talking about nerfs. Personally I feel the closest thing to insta win is Wardcliff and you should only get one rocket when grabbing heavy. Second to that is Jotunn. At least with NF you need to aim. And maybe I’m trash but I don’t think I’ve won a 1v1 at actual scout rifle range with NF. I recently changed to a Bygones to use Recluse a bit (due Ace and Thorn feeling ‘not right’ on console) and never really get killed by a Luna or even NF as I’m engaging further away than before.

There’s no recoil on PC so many other HC and better and can compete. Console doesn’t need that because we have aim assist. NF (unlike Luna’s) has perfect in air accuracy. You shouldn’t be fighting a scout with a NF. The fact that a hand cannon (Specifically the faster shooting, lower damage, and lowest range due to its fast RoT) can beat a bygones pulse rifle (A mid to long ranged weapon) is ridiculous. If your gun shoots faster, it should do less damage. That’s always been the rule in destiny weapon types. Luna’s and NF completely ruin that balance of weapon types. Not to mention they aren’t even exotics. So you’re free to pair them with chaperone, wardcliff, 1k voice, or any really powerful exotic. I don’t care for the perk or damage. All I want is a range nerf. Luna’s and NF shouldn’t be winning gunfights at a range not even Strum (with the catalyst that gives it damn near max range) can reliably win. It makes no sense and removes all skill from the crucible. It eliminated any reason to use any other hand cannon because they can’t compare.
