Ideas for Cypher buffs

I'm a guy who enjoys playing cypher, but now, with chamber coming out, I feel that his kit is kind of lacking compared to other sentinels in terms of the learning curve you need to use him well. So I had a couple of ideas to buff him so he can compete with the other sentinels(Apologies if the ideas themselves aren't new).

Give him one more of either a tripwire or cage. Allows him to secure more places, but, given that it only has 1hp with the wire, is still balanced. Balance it out with maybe that they can't be picked back up anymore after the round begins.

Give his camera 50 HP. That way, most guns need to use atleast 2 bullets to take it out giving just a fraction more time you can peek off it.

Instead of Neural theft leaving you just an after image, make the ult 7 or 8 points and make it more like Sova's dart where you see live positions for 1-2 seconds, depending on how much time you see the info, it can cost 7 points or 8.

Any one of these would make me happy, and I feel would make him more competitive to other sentinels.
