Seriously, Phantoms went from an "auto-take" to a 'that ship is pretty good, sometimes.'  The only advantage that it provided is that the Phantom could now cloak after being ionized, but it removed the incredibly potent arc dodging ability that made the Phantom so popular until the rule change. I think it was a good call for the sake of balance, but it made a very expensive, relatively fragile, ship to be not as good as it was.
