Picking Up Power Cell etc

[kyori]

Before I play Warframe, all other games I played previously has an area of contact in which I just need to be in close proximity;let's say a power cell, press context action and it will pick it up. But in Warframe, we have to be in precise direction to the power cell for it to produce a context action prompt in order to pick up the power cell. This little thing delayed picking up the power cell by milli of a second and that can caused to be killed by enemies in high level. Needless to say sometimes among the corpses of enemies or enemies, we cannot see where the power cell is.

So I am wondering is there a technical reason for the precise direction context action prompt in Warframe? Why it cannot be an AoE in which we just need to be close to the power cell and press X to pick it up without having to make the prompt appear first?

Provably to support team play of providing cover

Or just kill the enemies first grab power then
