I mostly agree with these opinions, however you say the Last Word got what it deserved, I have a mixed opinion on that subject. I don't believe it needed to be as nerfed as it was, I mean decreasing the hip fire accuracy is ridiculous seeing how that aim style is how TLW is supposed to be used! Yet reducing the range is a good idea because then maybe more people will use it like an up close and personal weapon instead of as a sniper rifle. In the crucible you have to be at point blank range as it is if you want to do serious damage quickly, and still to kill someone it takes 3-4 shots, so why reduce the magazine size on a weapon that has a small enough mag as it is!? I use the Last Word most of the time with my hunter and it seems to fit its role well, seeing how unlike Thorn some actual skill is needed to utilise its hip fire capabilities.
