How about instead of nerfs... buffs...
Every time for the last three years that there has been an op exotic they get nerfed come the next season and whichever exotic was 2nd best just takes the top spot.
Has Bungie ever thought about actually buffing the truly unloved exotics as a means to counteract the meta? Like instead of nerfing sleeper back in the day (which lead to Queenbreaker, which then the next season got nerfed) — why don’t they buff both to the same so it doesn’t matter which.
This would actually eventually end up with a playing field of exotics that can be chosen based on player preference, not just stats. Being able to use a deathbringer or truth alongside a wardcliff in matches instead of 6v6 with all the same loadouts.

It’s why 980 nightmare hunts and nightfalls are relatively enjoyable because of their difficulty. If we had the old sandbox it’d be a cakewalk and boring. It also makes exotics less and less worth it “just buff the exotics more” great now we are back at square one where everything is so damn strong that it must be compensated for. Remember season of the drifter, remember reckoning? Ever wonder why that was such a pain? Because we were overpowered af so we ended up with this horrible game type to compensate for our sheer strength. So no. No buffing everything.
