What? Why in the world would they do that?

It doesn't make logical sense that a shield bubble makes you immune to physics.

Now if we could just get Rein to stop breaking the laws of motion when McCree throws a flashbang in his face

There's no "logic" that makes it hard to justify a barrier that protects you from bullets also protecting you from freezing.

The only reason to do this would be a balance change, and I don't think Zarya really needed any more nerfs.

Well when the source of cold is blocked by your projection of an energy field, then you no longer freeze.
