But in a 50% race there could be a strategy of Soft-Hard, Medium-Hard, Hard-Medium, Hard-Soft depending on track and grid position. I instead see Medium-Hard at every track since patch 1.06 dropped.

@Meza994Exactly, because no tire advantage could cover up the gaps you lost from an extra pitstop with the shorten race distance, one-stop became the only viable way in anything 50% or less.
As a starting strategy I agree. But a safety car makes other strategies more powerful. For example, if I am running a M-H strategy and get a SC or VSC early in my hard stint, I could be faster to switch to the second set of mediums. Right now, there is no choice to make if you are not close enough to finish on softs. It is boring and takes away from immersion. There are other examples but hopefully you understand, it removes the dynamic part of race strategy. Now we just set the strategy and forget it, for the most part.
