If it were up to me, Active Scanners wouldn't be nerfed. They'd be removed.
I honestly don't understand why an item that allows you to see practically everyone's location 24/7 while also knowing what direction they're facing ever passed QA.
I'm also not sure why something that easily negate the need for situational awareness needs to be in this game. Isn't one of the main pros about this game supposed to be the emphasis on flanking and tactics?

There isn't a single suit that can't see you, as the Active Scans are shared with the entire team.
Not quite. I'm scanning from 200m away, so you'd have to either be carrying one yourself, or be a sniper.
Speed means $#!t when my Six Kin can insta-gank you with Aim Assist.

And your good?
200m is still 200m.
The CreoDron Flux Active Scanner has an 8s visibility duration, and a 1s scan duration. If you can't utilize 9s in a FPS game, you might be the one who's bad here.
