Should crouch teching be fixed?

I've been asking myself this, and I can't figure out the correct answer. On one hand, it's really frustrating to go against as killer on certain killers and against survivors who know how to do it. But on the other hand, it's considered counter-play for survivors on those killers. And then there's the argument of how they could even change it in the first place to prevent crouch teching, and that's what makes this so complicated in my mind.

It makes certain killers unfun to play against better survivors, but it makes survivor gameplay more fun and interactive against those killers.

I guess in the end I would prefer it be changed just because it's really frustrating to go against.

Thoughts?

    I wouldn't fix it on global scale. It's kinda fun thing and can be used as additional counterplay.

    I am fine with crouch tech working on Blight and Billy, they are strong enough to deal with it, but I would definetly remove it for Demo at least.

    Imo it should be fixed because I have always seen it as an exploit. The ability to push a button and just not get hit is astounding to me. It doesn't feel good as a killer and it isn't hard to do as a survivor either.

    Yes, it should be fixed.

    If a certain killer is so strong that they are OP without crouch tech being in the game then they should be balanced accordingly with the understanding that it's not there. A killer's strength should not be an excuse to leave an extremely annoying and frustrating bug in the game.
