I think you're over-emphasizing the benefit of the damage bonus from those gloves. Maybe on Insane it could be 'mandatory', but, on Default difficulty and one or two steps higher, you already get high enough damage with quite a few weapons to 1 shot enemies a large majority of the time; and to 2-3 shot them pretty much every time.. and with a maxed associated skill tree and stat, you have a hefty chance of instantly breaking the limb you hit- which includes heads, regardless of remaining HP.
Even with a couple zombies having more HP, there just isn't enough incentive, imo at least, to be using those gloves to the exclusion of all else. 60% more on a 1shot is still a 1 shot. 60% more on a 2-3 shot might be a 1-2 shot, and that's also just not meaningful enough to me to bother- Indeed, it'd take some of the fun away for me personally, because I'd be TOO strong and none of the enemies would feel like much of a threat.
Will it get nerfed? Maybe. But I don't think it'll be quite so 'required' as you're implying. It's 100% in "Only minmaxers need bother" territory.
