Vanguard: Shipment Weapon XP Problems, Operators Fixed?

After checking on the Nov. 18th fix for the Operator favorite weapon buff, as well as if you can stack 2XP tokens with the double XP event, I'll be investigating the big Vanguard weapon XP mystery: why does Shipment double weapon XP feel slower than it should? Is the XP nerfed? Is it really double? Well, yes, but actually no. It turns out there's no simple answer to those questions, but there's clearly something going very wrong with the weapon XP tracking in this game after all, it just seemed to take gaining XP more rapidly for it to reveal itself.
