I think the problem isn't that bounties have you use guns outside of your standard loadout, but that these bounties are the primary source of xp. I'm okay with bounties that make me go out of my way to do additional tasks, but activities should be the main source of xp.
With all of that said, you can take another approach to bounties. Yesterday, I picked up all the gunsmith, moon, and bunker bounties on a character and went into Garden of Salvation. I did the raid normally without changing ANYTHING for the sake of a bounty. I completed 14 bounties without even thinking about it! Just get into the habit of picking up bounties before you play, it will be free xp for any bounties you do naturally while playing.
This isn't a defense of the current bounty farming system, but a way to adapt to the system without feeling overwhelmed with needing to constantly change your loadout.

This is what I do, I pick up every bounty I can think of when I get on, then I start playing. Buy the end of the evening, I got most of them completed without having to change anything. With what I have remaining, if I have time or the drive to do them, I will, if not, eh. I don’t worry about them lol.

Yes, activities should be the main source of XP. But what activities are there in this season? Legendary lost sectors Bunker clears - about equal with legendary lost sectors, in some cases shorter and easier satellite launches - a thousand times - no better than bounties one raid ( I don't raid, so I might be wrong here) and the silly seasonal artifact that goes away in 3 months and requires nothing but assigning points To rank up bunker = bounties To maximize XP = bounties and more bounties on top of bounties Weekly rewards = vanguard, PVP, Gambit, gun smith = bounties and more bounties Strikes - that are the same as they have been for the last thousand times none are new If it weren't for bounties there would be precious little to do in a season. The story is for crap, a short movie and then go do a thousand bounties. No new territory to explore, nothing that is realy enticing or attractive. Suggestions: Add areas to small maps like Mercury and titan. Open a new section of the rig to explore, add a new bridge on mercury to a whole new area with a new lost sectors and public events. Open a new section of the tower to battle through week by week and at the end of the season leave it open adding a new strike and lost sector to go with it. New vendors that sell stuff for glimmer and other in game currency can move in. Add more dungeons add new strikes like 6 or 8 there is so much that could be added but is not being done.
