Bugs and lag. Lag and bugs. Destiny as usual, folks (Fan Creations)

But seriously, I have grown into believing most of the really broken shit I see going on in the Crucible is due to lag. It helped to ease the pain.

Yeah, the lag remains an issue. It's better than it was pre-2.0, but the game still lets individual clients dictate where they are and who they hit when shooting rather than rectifying host-side, keeping lag-switching as a viable cheat. Changing the code to handle all collisions by a single host would eliminate lag-switching by everyone except the host, and it would be easy for the game to see that the host frequently lagged and to just stop letting that person host.
