Ashe arrow hitbox

I know Ashe is set to receive some nerfs next patch, but are they focusing on the wrong things? It seems to me like she's so good because of the utility she brings more than the damage from Q. 1 second less uptime on ranger's focus will surely be a big hit, but the very generous hitbox on her ult seems to be a bigger concern. Just as an example from the recent C9 vs IMT game, it doesn't look like either one of these arrows should have hit, but they were surely a factor in why they lost the game.

I can think of more than a few instances where I thought I was clear of an arrow but ended up getting stunned and chunked down because of it. I can understand riot wanting to keep ashe's identity as sort of an easy champion for beginners to pick up, so it does make some sense to be more lenient on skill shots, but I feel they're a little too lenient.

her empowered Q is available readily. pretty much near all the time. and its supposed to be ashe weakness to provide cc and utility and not dps meanwhile shes putting as much dps as any adc really if not more with runnans interaction.

The pobelter one, he kind of walked into the hitbox as it was travelling...Should that happen, is another question.

I made 2 threads saying the same thing. Hope rito listens to us.

The justification for the hitbox is probably the same as the one for. ezreal's Q; It's airborne, so the hitbox isn't what it appears to be. Still, Ashe's ult is one of many abilities with bad hitboxes.
