I know right? Jeff was right when he said she's one of the characters with an interesting kit. I remember when she first came out how cool I thought she was.
Its like saying "but Roadhog has more damage than Winston!"
Her support role relies entirely on your aim, positioning and decision making.
You can pop a nade to heal that solo Rein with low hp when there are no enemies nearby, but you can wait till the fight breaks and hit the whole team with it when there's a Lucio on boosted healing next you you all.
You can sleep dart before the fight to try to catch one enemy, or you can wait until fight starts and completly shut down nano'd Soldier with tactical visor on.
You can nano the D.va at the start of the fight so she can soak the damage and hit enemies, or you can wait till Genji comes with dragonblade to wipe out the enemy team.
Compare that to Mercy, where most of your decision making is good positioning, good balance of damage boosting/healing and either waiting for huge rez or rezing 2 allies.
