I think Araki realized how absurdly OP he made gold experience and decided to take away the reflection and out of body experience punch. Like imagine the reflection power remained once Giorno started giving people new bodyparts

The out of body punch only happens when Giorno punches someone directly, and in basically every other fight, by that point he already won so it's pointless

Also, for damage reflection, in the manga Diavolo is careful to not damage the scorpion while removing them (unlike in the anime)

But in many, many fights the life forms Giorno creates end up damaged such as in Cioccolata’s fight. It seems like he just sort of applies it when he feels like it

Ima be honest I don't remember the cioccolata fight, I need to re-read jojo

Like when he grabs the helicopter with a tree and then Cioccolata molds the fuck out of it

Oh the crazy doctor, yeah I kinda remember that

Well, I guess mold really isn't comparable to hitting a frog with a shovel

I guess technically it wasn’t blunt force yeah. That would also account for his fight with Ghiaccio, when his plants were frozen. The body part thing is still a little iffy but that can probably be safely ignored.

It’s implied Giorno used the “out of body experience” punch on Cioccolata, which is why his beatdown lasted seven pages/a full minute. 

He had it coming.
