Pinpoint pitching is over hyped. Believe the game masters are trying to chase every one in that direction by suggesting it's overpowered. Perhaps it is, but if in fact it is...why let it out of the door?
Unless the intention is to force everyone on board in order to be "competitive". Could be the same marketing push used to get everyone to jump on Zone over Directional. Which, I'm fairly convinced, doesn't make a whole lot of difference. I know..I know..most won't agree with that but I believe it.
The truth is, the more overhead and layers that can put in place for the player to go through, the easier it is to inject variables to explain the anomalies in the game. Pinpoint Pitching requires at least somewhat more focus and "steps" than meter. Higher margin of error, easier to make excuses for it and blame the player.
If we all had to use the controller standing on our head, with the temperature set to 73 degrees, and kicking our feet in rhythm to "The Saints Come Marching in" and we got frustrated for some lack of realism. The answer would be you had the temp set to 74, or you weren't keeping rhythm perfectly . It's not a problem with the game.
Just a theory, but it's been supported in the gaming world since Luigi was rescuing Princess's.
Yeah either all that, or nobody has ever been able to pitch as good as you can with pinpoint and it’s extremely easy to do so.
If tomorrow they add a even better hitting system then zone, that is multiple times easier it would be the exact same issue. Average pitching would become terrible, the same way and average hitter has become much much worse with the extreme ease to pick corners with mediocre pitching and mediocre input. Nothing competitive about it, one of the systems in the game right along side perfect throws in the outfield with throw accuracy turned on.
