Does Freddy Need a Small Buff?

I have plenty of arguments for this.

1. People say Freddy shuts down loops. Yes, but only after walking through the loop once or twice. Then they just slam a pallet down and you have to hope they hit the pools. Not only this, they also have to be in the dream world. The pools are so small, survivors just run to another loop and do it all over again.
2. Alot of other killers have some way of countering pallets. Spirit that trick people and zoom around, Sadako can instantly just teleport to somebody else to attack, Clown can gas them or speed himself up, Trapper just places a single trap, Artist can place a crow, Pinhead can chain them, the list goes on.
3. Pools are too small. Any experienced survivor can just sidestep the pool if it hasn't been placed in a choke point. Or, somebody else who is afflicted with sleep can just run through them before hand.
4. His powers are nigh useless unless somebody is asleep. With the timer, it helps a bit. But what other killer has to depend on some sort of status effect to get use out of their power? I suppose vomit lady, but it's more of a passive power that operates on it's own.The only thing Freddy can do is teleport, and his teleport takes a long time to manifest. So survivors are usually miles away by the time your done.
5. The slowdown. Why? It was his one advantage, he wouldn't lose momentum in a chase and place his traps at the same time. Now that 5% is all it takes for someone to vault a window or pallet.
6. Pallet power is easily countered. Once people figure it out, they just slam all pallets they see down. Some people have even figured out ways to know how a pallet is fake or real.
7. Entirely dependent on perks. Because his power is so weak, perks have to make up for his lack of ability. You can combine some things to make pallets less annoying.
8. Only 5 traps to lay down. That hag has 10 or so, and her traps are WAY better. So why can't Freddy have more?
9. Doesn't slow down fast vaults/pallet jumps. This could probably make all the difference. But people can dash through them no problem, making putting a trap before any vault or pallet completely pointless.
10. Sometimes the power just doesn't even work. Why? Idk. I just can't place it on the ground. There is a point in the video that you can see I attempt to lay down traps and simply cannot.

I wasn't trying to play smart. Freddy is a "moderate" difficulty to use killer. But to use him efficently, you have to have traps set up in advance, consider the map layout, kite survivors into specific choke points, hope your placements aren't denied for some reason, pray that the survivors are working alone, etc. Every other killer is so much easier to use. Even the Nurse.
