Please, you have to remove "Clear Mines" from C4. C4 IS NOT FUNCTIONAL

Gunners get a popup that tells them when you are placing C4 on them. 

THE COUNTER TO C4 IS BEING AWAKE AND AWARE. Any gunner has plenty of time to shoot a recon throwing C4 if they're paying attention especially now that you need 4. Just now, a tank was COMPLETELY oblivious to my presence as a recon, I threw 4 C4, but the gunner gets a popup that says "Clear Mines" out of nowhere and THEY COMPLETELY INVALIDATE MY EFFORT TO SNEAK UP AND PUT MYSELF AT RISK ENTIRELY. 

Let me repeat. Gunners get a popup that tells them when you are placing C4 on them.

This is insane. I have taken advantage of it too! Gunning for a friend on Firestorm and out of nowhere "Clear Mines" pops up, I press the button, a recon I didn't know was there gets totally owned with no counterplay despite the fact that I was oblivious. 

A Battlefield game with dysfunctional C4 is not fun. The Battlefield sandbox is shallower and less interesting because of your team's obsession with making C4 completely worthless. Let vehicles get punished for mispositioning or not paying attention or getting overwhelmed after pushing up too much! This has always been a part of Battlefield, and I'm sorry, it has not been overtuned in most prior titles! It's been fun and reasonable!

If you need to reduce the throw-distance of C4 to make this change, do so! But this is completely unacceptable. There is absolutely no way for me to predict what will happen if I start throwing C4 at a tank because I have no agency over if that player will remove it with a single button, even if they weren't paying attention and I know they're distracted.
