Billy is just a weaker Oni
*This post will be valid after the update*
Well, Billy used to be balanced except for some add ons. But now, no one will play Billy? Why? Because he will have the same strength as Oni and Leatherface, but he will just require more skill. More skill should mean better killer, since you should be rewarded for playing a killer that is hard to play, but now Billy will no longer be good. Meanwhile, someone can just pick Oni and Bubba without to much skill to be required.
Oni can dash into walls with no penalty and Leatherface has a lot of charges. Now, if they are played correctly, they are equal: Oni needs blood, Leatherface does not have map pressure but is good in a chase and Billy has an overheat mechanic. However, Billy requires the skill of not bumping into something and curving correctly. This will not be the case for Oni. Leatherface will not require much knowledge either, since he will just have to turn around, which is very doable during a frenzy. So basically Billy will require more skill than the other 2, but will have the same strength.
Please, devs, do not let any of the Billy changes go live except for the broken add ons. Any survivor that cries about base kit Billy is just entitled to his win.

I was on a break from the game when they added Oni, but upon my return I was like, ok, they made a Billy who can run into stuff with no penaltty, then why does Leatherface go into some stupid tantrum if he does?

I've tried to suggest a tweak in the overheat mechanics that might allow good billy to keep playing creatively and still avoid 4 man slugs or facecamps here https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/171395/billy-overheat-is-too-much-punishing-and-dont-allow-creative-use-of-the-chainsaw#latest , what do you guys think?

Oni is just a mix of Billy and Myers and more powerful than both. We’ve been knowing this.

Oni was weaker than Billy, but if the nerfs go live unchanged, Oni will be stronger than Billy. I really don't see what is it that you don't understand.
