Rationale of severe nerfing of Armor of Faith #142

I have just noticed that the revised spell has a fixed 10% damage reduction whereas the vanilla spell has 5% per 5 levels. I remember how powerful that vanilla spell was in BG2 when Thac0 starts to stop being relevant. But was it so powerful that it needed to be nerfed to such an extent? Removing any progression, especially. Not a bug report therefore, just trying to understand the rationale.

I reckon that it being percentage-based already counts as meaningful progression.
