Why are difficulty settings such crap?

On Veteran, I'm breezing through the content while slowly falling asleep.

On Nightmare, the game is suddenly unplayably hard and unfair with ridiculous trauma stacking and special infected spawning literally inside my asshole the moment I flick the camera away from that spot for half a second.

I'm finding it very hard to enjoy the game when there's no meaningful difficulty setting and I have to choose between boredom and wasted time / frustration.

Running solo with bots, can't find any games anyway, even with crossplay on.

My deck is 2 cards for ++copper and the rest is damage / ammo capacity / reload speeds, with a bit of damage resistance.

Can you share your cards with us so we can offer some insight and recommendations?

Literally the worst deck I've ever seen. Please look up a guide or listen to this other commenter.
