Not getting the correct amount of experience from heroic public events.
I started to notice this last week, and in the midst of doing my own testing I found this post on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/7adxjf/lets_talk_about_the_xp_cooldown/.
There appears to be a cooldown or cap on experience gains similar to planetary chests in place. Which the gifs provided clearly show. Despite the amount shown being 2k more than the first gif, the experience bar barely even moves at all. This matches my own experience over the course of the past week when it took me a full 2 hours to grind one level doing nothing but public events, the overwhelming majority of them being heroic.
This is at best a gross oversight, and pure manipulation at worst. What's the point of the well rested buff if you are going to completely hamstring experience gained?
EDIT: Just got home, and uploaded some screenshots I've been taking of the matter myself.

You can see that for the majority the XP gained on bar seems pretty much the same even when the XP varies by more than a thousand. There's also some 3k in there provide as much as 7-8k, and one or two 7-8ks that gave me almost nothing.

I think they should raise the amount of experience that you get in the crucible, along with removing this "Exp cooldown". As a mostly PvP oriented player, I always use the +10% Exp in the crucible ghost, and use a medallion, whenever I play. And even when I have the "well rested" buff present, it still seems to take forever to gain levels in the crucible. PvE events always level me up, much faster than the crucible does. Guardians (real people) are much tougher to kill than most A.I. is. I feel like the amount of experience that you get from each kill in the crucible, should represent that. 9000 exp, from a 5 minute public event seems reasonable, as after an hour of play, you could theoretically do around 12 public events, and go up a level within that time (without the cool-down in action). But in PvP, even with a bright paragon, +10% ghost, and the "well rested" buff; it takes much longer than an hour to go up a level, and is arguably a tougher "event", than public events are. It can take several hours of crucible play (4-5+), to go up just one level.
