How come you can still do the double locker flashlight saves with flash bangs and firecrackers?

For context, I just went against a team that was just going into the lockers and double locker flashlight saving but just with the flashbangs instead. I find it so weird that they didn't remove this when they removed Locker saves because this is just as abusable. They literally just hold the game hostage for a couple of minutes and eventually, I was able to win but it wasn't really fun. It was a full survivor team in on it, which is both a blessing because it allowed me to just eventually win but it also sucks because the entire team was just waiting either in a locker or by a locker to get the save. I was playing Ghostface so there was no way I could really prevent them from going in the locker. Every time I would grab them, I literally couldn't do anything to avoid the flashbang. I also wasn't in the best mindset so maybe that affected it but it's just so annoying to play a game and not be able to do anything. it just feels weird because it feels like this is just an oversight. I want to hear what everyone else has to say, I do get to say even though I am a killer main. That I hope they make both flashbangs and firecrackers a bit more desirable to use.

    Flasbangs aren't nearly abusable as flashlights, and the survivors weren't just hiding in lockers or even holding the game hostage because farming flashbangs requires them to do gens (and I assume they must have been doing them quite a bit to be able to spam flashbangs at you).

    Also this isn't just an oversight as explained by Mandy somewhere in this discussion : https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/discussion/comment/3429604#Comment_3429604

    My personal thoughts on this is that I'm glad flashlight locker saves can't be spammed anymore but flashbangs require enough gen progress that it's not really a problem, because the ressource will run out at some point.

    Personally I really don't mind this, but also I love going against "bully squads" in general lol so I'm aware this might not be the general consensus.
