Misunderstood.
There is a big problem with the combination of cross-play and aim assist. If console players only play together, then they all have the same handicap or advantage. But if I am inclusively forced to play with console players, then controller players have a clear advantage. Their aim assist is simply a problem, regardless of what auto-aim is like. By the way, when you mention previous games, cross-play as a kind of woke element has only been around since BF2042. It was NEVER there before. Moreover, in BF2042, I could turn it off. Believe me, the difference after turning off cross-play is huge. In BF6, I don't have this freedom, unlike console players. From your satisfied reaction to the current state of affairs, I guess you're a controller player(?) Then I recommend you take the opposite side of the barricade.
To sum it up, it can never be balanced if players are not competing on equal terms. Battlefield is a highly competitive game, similar to sports. Even in sports, you can't pit handicapped athletes against athletes without handicaps, assuming that the handicapped athletes will have some advantage. One team will then feel that the advantage is too small, and the other team of athletes will feel that it is too big.
And now I'm on a team that feels that advantage (auto-aim) is too big.
