Even you have to admit that this trick is basically a game-changing exploit. Considering ammo awarded when switching is based on the ammo count at death? The Icebreaker's ammo exploit wouldn't be so bad if it couldn't spiral into an easy win from the first few seconds since quick use of a charged IB will give you a small car's worth of bullets.
Six Icebreaker rounds goes to absurd ammo for other weapons. It's circumventing a rule everyone is expected to go by, thus invalidating an entire patch. At the end of the day, it may as well be a cheat.

It's not really game changing when you can out play most players with melee and grenades alone. In saying that I can see why so many average players would complain about it, but then most players play so slowly that they could wait for green to spawn anyway.

Yes, only average players complain about it. That's why Byf has spoken about it, and why it's been acknowledged by the top players as a game-changing exploit. Having 18 1KYS shots in round 2 without opening a single crate is absurd, and utterly gamechanging.

The way you've worded your second paragraph is like it was never possible before. The only difference is now there's a reason to do it.

And the sudden change making such a trick viable is the concern. What will cause the meta to shift into Thorn? If you ask me, waiting to find out is not worth it. The gun needs to be further nerfed, before Trials and IB go back to the Y1 meta.
