And yet despite the alleged game breakingness of this unit, it doesn't seem to be any more popular than it was pre-WFA

Popularity by achievements is kinda silly. Its a doctrinal unit on a premium commander, this means less people would have it.
Sure I'll grant you that.
But B-4 has shorter max range and only one chance RNG will bless you.
Just like any other indirect fire unit. Other static artillery pieces have it worst, since they no longer have saturation capabilities. You expect to deal damage on the first 2 shells unless you are hitting something like HQ.
While mostly B4 vet is what should change, i think a revamp on static artilleries in general should be made and/or work on the base defenses.
To be honest, i have more problem with the excuses people make to defend it rather than the unit on itself
