Slow-going is way more my speed (as I reply 2 days late and it doesn't even seem weird), so here's hoping it sticks. I haven't exactly been a fan of reddit for some years, but the gw2 sub has been one of the few that made it worth putting up with.

Kind of simultaneously agree and disagree with Muk's take on scrapper (it's actually amazing if you play around HGH and blast finishers in kits like it was still 2013, but I also get that a lot of players would rather delete their engies than suffer that), but all in all he's spot on. Forcing classes to waste critical/situational skills in order to do what a couple can do just by hitting 1 only results in those classes getting shelved by players, especially when it's brute-forced in such a way that it actually removes aspects of the class/spec's identity.
Anet are probably rushing to get the expansion out on time right now, but I hope they've set aside some time for revisions on this stuff since it's becoming a summer tradition.
