Gen regression and Kicking Gens

One thing I feel like that need to relooked or rebalanced is Gen regression. Currently a regressing Generator loses 0.25 charges per second, while a standard solo survivor creates 1. So it takes 4 times longer to regress the process of a single survivor. Additional to that kicking gens takes time and a regression can be stopped by one simple click of a survivor makes the act of regressing very unattractive.
This gives you only a few reasons to kick a gen. Having Pop goes the Weasel, Overcharge, or you are quite certain that no survivor won't be able to touch it, which makes regressing worth it.

I think what's the most frustrating scenario is, if the gen is part of a loop, and that survivor even uses it immediatly when you reach it. Why? Well if a survivor loops you close to a hook, then he is most likely killing the hooked one by making unhooking completely unsafe for a while potentially brining him to the next hook stage. But in such a scenario you can't kick the gen as a killer to punish him looping there with the regression, because they can stop it with one single click during a loop with zero downsides.
And I still don't understand how it was said during one of the latest streams that it's more fun that way? Really limiting the options to use a basic game mechanic is fun? If kicking a gen itself would already make a mini Pop goes the weasel regression than it might be more fun. But that. I don't understand.
