Why Can't Heavy Mortars Use Barrages Anymore?

What happened, I thought mortars pre-patch could fire a barrage on a target area, now they can't.

Read the patch notes. The barrage ability now requires the mortar upgrade.

 Pre-upgrade mortar teams : 4 people :)
 AFTER-upgrade mortar teams : 5 people. Got 3 vet studs
 on head. Get barrage. No more phosphorous rounds :(

 It only applies to NEW mortar teams, though.
 
 ie : Read the patch notes :D
You know, there are many people in the country today who, through no fault of their own, are sane. Some of them were born sane. Some of them became sane later in their lives. It is up to people like you and me who are out of our tiny little minds to try and help these people overcome their sanity

Why'd they remove phosphorus anyway and instead replace it with smoke?
