How is this even a reward for one of the hardest activities in the game? Ascendant shards..... and only 9 of them as well. At least when I get rewarded 7 strange coins I can use them because they have some value/are needed now. Ascendant shards are uselsss for anyone 30+ and not wanted by anyone who has completed the nightfall. This should really be removed as a reward from the nightfall.
I guess ill add these to my collection of shards. 270 and counting.

Not the worst reward possible. The worst is getting a gun or armor you don't need. Then you are really just getting 2-3 ascendant materials. It's worse. Those 270 will come in handy eventually. Once we have slowly drudged on long enough, Bungie will have the "novel" idea of allowing the exchange of old currency for new at some kind of funneling rate of 3:1 or 5:1. Don't get rid of them yet
