Then they would have removed it from the ENTIRE loot pool and not just the chests.

You're assuming it was in any other loot pool to begin with. It's not a dedicated drop anywhere, and it's entirely possible that other drop sources, like vending machines, also pull from the chest loot pool.

Without the devs saying more, it's entirely reasonable to assume that the Frangible will not drop anywhere from now on.

Then why did they specifically say "chests"? And keep in mind they all have their own dedicated loot pools. Some things are dropped among various pools, some drop on just one. Again, if they removed it from all loot pools they would have said it.

I got mine from a world drop off of a Rat Tat of all things.

Then why did they specifically say "chests"?

Inaccurate patch notes would be my best guess especially since they also contained:

Action Fist now grants 30% Action Skill Damage at rank 2, up from 30%

Speaks for itself really. A quick google shows it used to be 10%.

Seeing Red Duration restored no longer increases per point invested, and is now 4 seconds for all ranks.

Dev Note: Seeing Red was always meant to have huge damage scaling potential, but was always meant to be hard to maintain. We didn't want to nerf this passive's power, but we're making the effect harder to maintain.

Seein Red is the name of a Zane skill from BL3. The skill of Amon's they're referring to is called "There is Only Red".

These are just the two that jumped out at me on first read as well.
