"Wingman" turned into a "Wingboy" (which makes me sad)

The Wingman is (and has always been) my alltime favorite weapon in Apex since its mastering needs a lot of practice and skill. Somehow in S21, Respawn suddenly decided to nerf it in several points -...

My experience is the 301 will put out more bullets faster. Is that incorrect? Would akimbo 20s out shoot a 301 in the same time it takes to unload a max clip?

if my golden 45 or 301 can knock you with golden 20s then you can’t shoot me with the rest of your clip.

Another thing.
Why bother wasting all your ammo shooting, just to have an empty mag when you really need to shoot your target?
With akimbo P20, you never need to fear, or not that often anyways.
It takes 2-3 mags with a 45, 1.5 mags with a 301, and 0.75 mags with akimbo P20s to take people out. That's because of my hitrates.
If I run out of ammo, I'm instantly dead. Therefore I'll take akimbo P20s over 301/45 any day as I maintain ammo and can take out multiple targets in one mag, whereas I miss so much with the 301/45 that I get caught mid reload, thus getting killed.
301 definitely trumps 45.
P20 definitely trumps 45.
Alternator and CAR definitely trump 45.
Overall the 45 is utter garbage.
It could use an akimbo to make it more on-par with akimbo P20s, and make the 45 more on-par with Alternator/CAR.
