I would love to know why Nurses range addons needed changing.
Previously to the Nurses addon reworks/updates, range addons were super strong, but not completely unstoppable. A blink over x amount of distance would take the same amount of time with and without range addons. Range addons only increased the blink range while also increasing the charge time. Next to recharge addons they were the best addons Nurse had. With the changes to Nurse this addon was changed. The new range addons now make it so that a max range blink with range addons takes the same amount of time as a max range blink without range addons, therefore increasing blink speed. This not only works for max range blinks, but also for blinks of any distance, as proven by many content creators. Even though the description doesnt say so and the community thought they were likely just bugges, BHVR recently announced that this is intended (my personal opinion is that they cant fix it).
So heres my question: Why does the strongest killer in the game need buffs of addons that are already super strong? Most counterplay Nurse has relies on blink speed. For example: If you perfectly double back a max range blink, the Nurse cant hit you with her follow-up blink. Due to the increased speed of range addons, this is no longer possible. I would love to see range addons be reverted to the pre-addon pass of the Nurse.

I read your post and I'm saying literally nothing has been buffed, her addon increased her blink speed all the time.

Well thats just wrong. But its fine if you believe that. It actually first occured in 5.6.0 was later patched and re-introduced in 6.0.0

When they recoded Nurse a few months ago the add-ons got bugged.
Then they fixed the part about extra charge time not being accounted for, but missed the extra speed which was never part of the effects when she had gotten her add-on pass way back.
So, they either don't want to admit they forgot to patch it the first time around, or they don't know how to, like so many other bugs.
Or, they genuinely believe that range add-ons needed a buff even though they were even banned in comp when they weren't bugged. This wouldn't surprise me from BHVR. What would surprise me is that they didn't simultaneously nerf Pig while buffing the strongest killer in the game.

If you look at the bug reports about her range addons.. They got marked as "intended and not a bug" which is ridiculous IMO. At this point it doesn't matter if it's intended or not, the addons are OP and need to be nerfed. Nurse is strong enough as it is and doesn't need the benefit of faster blinks
