The problem is there are far too many adventure designs that break that structure. Pact magic ONLY works when you are using that optimal structure. One hard encounter and the warlock is out of gas. Go for a third encounter and warlock is out of gas. The warlock's rests set the pace of the adventure. Oh PLEASE give me an invocation that casts shield at will! To be fair though, WotC grossly overvalues the at-will nature of invocations. They still think Jump at will is a 9th level effect. Apparently, nobody ever told them about Silent Image (or they feel illlusions are far too DM situational to rate). I think WotC sees there is a flaw in the artificer and I fully expect that when the artificer gets the 1D&D treatment tht it will be fixed.</blockquote>
