Lol, imagine Bungie intentionally breaking their strict cookie cutter mold of "it's either balanced or difficult" Vanguard Ops already feel awful if you're in a full matchmade party with even semi-competent guardians, and the rewards aren't really worth grinding for, so why not just let them go crazy from time to time? It'll be like changing from an axe to a chainsaw to cut your bread, both are overkill, but chainsaws are often more fun than axes.
