The nurse can grab people after a blink even though blink attacks are now special attacks
Title. Earlier this year the nurse's attacks after a blink were changed from basic attack to special attack which removes her synergy with exposed perks. Now that these are special attacks, shouldn't they not be able to grab ? I say that because special attacks typically don't let the killer grab a survivor, except maybe wesker, although his special attacks are quite unique and don't always grab but just hit the survivor when the survivor is doing certain actions.

She does not have "special attack". She has a new type of attack specifically designed for her called "blink attack".
I see no problem with her being able to grab survivors after blinking. IMO It's infinitely more loss, that devs deciding to remove lightburning her (both to prevent blink and to actually stun her, but mostly to prevent blink).

It's because there's an achievement involving grabbing a survivor after 3 blinks

A really stupid achievement if you want to do it legit.
Otherwise one of the easier achievements.
Used to be easier before when she could get several blinks easily, but now only method is with an Iri Addon, so your attempts are heavily limited.

1. Nurse's attacks on a technical level aren't special attack. They're a sub category of basic attacks colloquially referred to as a "Sub Basic" Attack. Those are basic attacks with modified properties, in Nurse's case, reduced range. Because hers was explicitly designed to emulate a regular basic attack, she can perform a basic grab (unlike Wesker or Dredge who have special grabs unique to them).
2. Nurse's ability to grab is tied to an achievement. Sony in particular really dislikes changing them.

If that's the case, Legion should be unable to pull me out of lockers during Feral Frenzy since his attacks during Feral Frenzy now count as special attacks. 🤷♂️
