dont think you realize what the problem is with shotguns: Yes you say that you need to adjust and i agree to a extent, but the way shotguns gain complete control over the map, chokes, defense points and objective is so much of an adjust its more of a RESTRICTION. I literally cant push at all in a competitve environment even after chunking them cause i know they have a shotgun around the corner. The problem comes from when you are not using a shotgun yourself. The adjustments you do restricts your ability to move around the map to the degree that you cant play objectives. and whena meta is so hard that it actively punishes you for not following it, thats nto a healthy state for the game. it removes player choice which is literally the principle of which games are built on.
