I swear this thread is filled with some of the dumbest hot takes I've ever seen. Did I accidentally switch to the reddit sub?
Edit: found this on the reddit sub. Sums it up pretty well.

"There is no problem. Everything is fine (coz i can not imagine full picture of this sutiation with the removal of the most ideologically important for the game interesting mechanic)"
People initially download games just to play, but stay (and donate) for interesting mechanics and personal development (for example, like the Titanfall community). Without interesting features and mechanics that players can explore and develop in them, the game is nothing interesting. Tapstrafe is one of the most interesting mechanics, and if it is removed, many top streamers and strong players who have spent a lot of time both on the game itself, as well as on improving their skills in it, will simply lose interest. After all, it's not interesting to just go and shoot, it's interesting when you have a whole arsenal of game features that you have trained and can use them in battle. Thats about personal growth and exploration and the retention of the players. You can ignore it, but it exists, and it will have consequences.

@phnmn1 Are you really calling tap strafing "the most ideologically important for the game interesting mechanic?" Somehow this game thrived just fine in the 7 seasons before tap strafing became popularized, and certainly for the 5 seasons before anyone discovered it. Go cry in Taxi's twitch chat, I can't even with you people anymore.
- 4 years ago@pandareno1999 I agree. Lol at people thinking they should be able to launch off a jump pad and travel in the opposite direction. That's not an exploit!
I'm curious to see if this well-deserved change will improve hit reg problems for people with more than 15 ms latency, lol. I wonder how many times tap strafing was responsible for seeing something different on your screen than what the server is registering. - 4 years ago

@BaldWraithSimpBest dev at Respawn when it comes to transparency to their decision making. I’ll make this as the solution so that a lot more people can read it.

Epic! I suggest that all the people would read this. After carefully reading you can make statements according to this. Then we have opportunity to have a conversation.
Why that backpack is not included? Am I missing something..how that affects? You can loot and carry 12 scopes instead of 10? - 4 years ago
@Cheese9ManWattson winrate has gone up since tap strafing was discovered. More and more pc players are tap strafing into Wattson fences resulting in their shocking and painful death. We have concluded that Wattson needs to be nerfed.

"across MMR levels, rank, you name it, the difference in weapon performance is not nearly as great as some would believe. Pred level controllers are not beating out pred level MnK with Prowlers in close range at any sort of crazy rate."
What a surprise. 🤭 But the anti-controllxxers will not believe you, JayBiebs. They have their assumptions and they heard/read something on the internet about the "controller Prowler"

@phnmn1 Don't let the door hit you in the * on the way out.

Maybe this thread has run its course ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
