Fast vault nerf

Out of curiosity, can we get a reason why fast vaults were nerfed once again? I'm genuinely curious and would like to know the reasoning for changing it?
It seems like it is just faster to do a medium vault than trying to position yourself in such a way to get a fast vault. Then, what is the purpose of fast vaults? If you guys no longer want them to be part of gameplay why not directly remove them instead of adding more and more restrictions?

Totally. I tried to get a fast vault while i was looking behind me like i always do. But for some reason i got a medium vault , even if i got the right distance and speed.
It's fine the way it is. You have to have at least 3 steps away from the window for the right momentum and you can't side hop for a fast vault. I still fast vault like normal. If you're talking about the BUG that allowed you to fast vault sideways while hugging the wall, that was just stupid.
They've nerfed vaulting enough. I don't get what the point of this change even is. Nobody asked for this.
The fast vault nerf is ridiculous. As said above, literally nobody asked for it.
the nerf was stupid, they didnt fix a bug as some people are saying, the made fast vaults very limited and only work on VERY obvious windows. It used to reward good players for getting fast vaults with tight angles, but now there is no point in trying.
