Oh god at all the salt.

Let's take a look at our options here, shall we?

Tiberon with straight-up damage mods (strombringer, infected clip, etc) = 1200+ damage per bullet, so 3600+ per burst (and all 3 shots will land on target to nearly sniper range)

Latron Prime with crit mods = about 900 damage per bullet, so with 67% crit chance you're gonna get around 2700 damage with 2/3 of your shots, and only 900 damage the rest of the time. And this is with Critical Delay AND Point Strike. Overall vastly lower damage on target.

Latron Prime with status mods = about 1100 damage per bullet with only 25% crit and around 80% status. If we give you the benefit of the doubt here and go with a Toxin build (can't even get a pure Toxin Latron P to 80% status chance, but eh) then against Grineer with Ferrite you're still only gonna do 1750 per shot and you MIGHT get a crit for about 3400 one shot out of four.

Can someone explain to me HOW THE HELL you figure that a Latron, Latron Prime, Burston Prime, or really anything besides a Soma Prime or Boltor Prime is EVER better than this gun? On what planet do you guys live that this gun is anything besides awesome?

Yes, it had horrible status AND horrible crit. But when you're doing 3x the raw damage of a crit gun, you don't NEED crits.

Maths, people. Learn them.
