A MONTH ago, there was a patch that fixed some of the efficiencies that was inherently broken and/or not working as intended.
In the case of the Catapult (this is undocumented, unless you read through Smurfy's mechlab thread), Twist X was not applying its bonuses PREVIOUSLY to the patch that was issued last month. Now Twist X bonus is working, and catapults got a buff.
So, now today, we get a catapult nerf to the torso twist... across the board.
However, this is a response to having the "buff" that was added previously.
Overall, the catapult is not suffering from any major nerf. It's simply readjustments to bug fixes that have caused Catapults to have an insane torso twist (more than usual) prior to Tuesday's patch. It's that simple.
