Punishment of the Damned addon idea?

Now as I said in my previous post: I'm no expert on perk building and this will carry on for addons or hell, anything else I bring up. This will be a shorter post since its not that complicated. So instead of bumbling, let's get right into it!

I like the range addons for Punishment of the Damned, but what if we flip it on its head? What if instead of range, we give the player width? Now I know this sounds like it would be OP, but it would only increase it by a small but noticeable amount while REDUCING the range of Punishment of the Damned.

Now I'd like to compare this addon to The Binding of Isaac for those who have played that game. Azazel comes with a pickup called "Brimstone", but with a considerably reduced range because it's such a powerful item to spawn with. Now I want that to be the addon idea to be just like that. Shorter, wider, and give it more versatility during chases, instead of it just being a quick pallet hit thing. Like I said: Think of it like The Binding of Issac

I have NO idea if this makes ANY sense to someone who has never played TBoI, but I guess I'm trying?

    Very lazy, very tired and brain no work. My apologies for the lazy post, gamers.

    I'd be fine with it but I'm just thinking, how useful would it be? Either the range descrase would be so noticable that you're better of using M1, or not that it feels pretty unfair, depending on how wide it goes. And then again, it could feel useless if it's not wide enough but OP if it's too wide.

    They'd be treading a very, very, very fine line with the add-on. And knowing BHVR, they'd either make it really weak and Very Rare, or old Prayer Beads level of strength at Common

    If you put it in the context of this game, it's essentially like a Billy add-on that gives him Bubba's chainsaw
