Seems like a troll post, but I will bite. Give me an example of what you consider "slapping"? I believe that the biggest concern of Warlock mains is not the neutral game of movement, as we only had one movement ability that will be nerfed shortly. Warlocks, in theory, are supposed to be the best class at wielding space magic (so they get to stand in a 6x6 healing puddle!) and this set of exotic nerfs directly affects that ability. Your lack of concern about nerfing warlock abilities is fine with me. Most people would point to their classes nerfs to justify the other classes being nerfed. I have yet to hear/see a hunter or titan complain about these armor nerfs. Why? Because these armor nerfs will not effect the meta builds of their classes. IMO, the only reason Bungie included the Hunter and Titan exotic in their nerf twab was to create the illusion that it isn't just warlocks being hit with the nerfs. Geomags are a part of one of the two most popular meta builds that warlocks can run in competitive crucible. (And most complained about) If Hunters stompees or titan dune marchers were nerfed to an equal degree, we would see numerous posts concerning that in the forums.here. While I agree that there are some overdramatic warlocks out there, I disagree with Bungie's premise that these nerfs were necessary to bring balance to metagame in pvp (and PvE) It will just make the other classes (abilities) even more dominant. I believe, these nerfs are targeted mostly at PvP as the calls to nerf Geomags originated from the PvP community. ("He killed that raid boss too quickly with his Chaos reach" said no Fireteam, ever) I assume balance is Bungie's desired state within PvE and pvp, not sure that this was the way to achieve that state.
