[2020] Why nerf Breakdown into the dirt?

For those unaware, the Breakdown perk has a chance to award invention components when finishing a smithing item. Previously, the chance was affected both by perk rank and the number of bars required to smith the item. With this patch they have removed the boost on chance per bar. Functionally, this means that instead of getting a proc every single time on +4 and +5 items, it's at best a flat 4% chance at perk rank 5 (not counting item level buffs to the perk). I get that with the huge boost to components gained it might be overpowered, but this makes it essentially useless. It would have been nice to have the number of bars still affect the chances but let the perk rank influence the number of components you get, with Breakdown 5 maybe awarding 50% of comps normally gained.
