Revert the three-year-old PvE sniper nerf

The title says it all. I'd like to see the Garden of Salvation-era sniper rifle nerf gone. It was a reactionary adjustment in the first place, because there was nothing else that was viable for the bosses at that time, since the bosses there were long-range enemies. Since then, snipers have just felt like a waste of space compared to other special weapons. Outside of Garden, there's no reason to use a sniper because enemies are well within slug shotgun or fusion rifle distance, and those significantly outdamage snipers. Even in content where you want to be at a "safe distance" such as Grandmaster Nightfalls, it's hard to justify the damage loss of bringing a sniper in either slot over just using your Exotic slot for Arbalest, which not only does comparable damage (might even do more but I digress), alongside being an anti-barrier and anti-shield weapon.
