[2022] How are all of you see changes to bounty system as a nerf and not a buff?

I don't get it!?

They changed values, overall increasing total XP gain by increasing values of most frequent bounties.

Then on top of that added a system that can speed up challenges that require doing gold or silver bounties.

It's the same situation as with XP Banking. It was a new feature, that is great QoL improvement, but people imagined it for the wrong purpose, forgetting that it works great at what it does.
