There are many reasons why this strike is a bad strike for nightfalls. From my perspective the strike suffers from a punishing bossfight with timegates for the mob spawns including champions sometimes not spawning due to "too fast kills of the boss" leading to less good rewards. The Pikes are hilariously OP when they shoot you on a Sparrow but once you dismount they become like a poor kitten unable to hit you most the time. The Tank and Minotaur in the open world areas are literally just like a cardhouse. One blow and they are dead. BORING AF! Not to mention the bug that when wiping on the boss the champion at the lower stairs respawns again.
I speak only for myself and as someone who loved this strike back in Y1, I think it is time for it to go forever. It is very outdated (especially with Cayde-6 still talking ingame, also mechanic-wise).

Most people just use some of the cheese spots, that why so many players say that it's easy.

I still have flashbacks about how hard this strike was before they changed it in Coo.

If you kill boss before Champion spawn will still give platinum.

Title could have just stopped at ‘Horrible strike’

Pretty sure you still get platinum if you kill the boss before champs spawn. That’s how warden of nothing worked. Strike isn’t too bad, pretty easy with this seasons artifact mods.
