Because they can't hit you from 12 range away AND refund two points of your momentum, in the case of the last two. BotGW has alternate arguments against it that I won't get into.
SWA. Simple. Easy. That's the issue.
Shurikens had low scaling prior to the update and I don't see why that needed to be changed. They weren't broken back then, far from it - their low SWA was made up for by their inflicts, Twin Dance compatible range, unique talents, and potentials. Getting SWA through Titan Gale or Ignite Power with these things made you feel like you had it all. Because you did.
Slap tool tag on all specialised (read: every shuriken except the basic shuriken) shurikens.
Solving the issue, that being too much scaling, because they have too much SWA, and thus do too much damage,
isn't bad.
Because shurikens weren't bad when they had low SWA. Same way Staff Of Eyes isn't. Same way Ryeser isn't.
We don't need an overthought alternate solution.
It goes without saying that non-shuriken daggers are fine with their current scaling, too.
