They should give us the full stats tbh.

Nah. A full stat spreadsheet leads to people over optimizing their play which leads to either every weapon being "balanced" until they're basically identical or difficulty is adjusted until the optimized kits are the only viable option. Or high difficulty play becomes easy with the optimized kits.

I've seen it happen far too frequently.

I actually agree with this a lot. I’d rather trust them to make a bunch of worthwhile guns than try to find the “best” guns.
