Most cc in this game can be countered with the intelligent use of resolve. When one uses a hard cc like a stun or a blind they still need to invest a cd into it's use for little to no damage.
Knockbacks cannot be countered by resolve and will not be interrupted by using one's cc breaker. Knockbacks can situationaly be used as a one hit kill by knocking people off of a bridge, one cd and your enemy is dead.
Bioware please fix. Please give all classes a knockback or a way to intelligently counterplay them.

Edit; The following is a cut+paste of a post I made later in this thread and is what I'd love to see
Personally I'd like to see my cc breaker affect knockbacks so I can instantly interrupt my movement in mid flight, or have one of my moves modified in some way so that they might root me to the ground or pull me towards an enemy target.
A self root could be made to be balanced, as it could easily be given a fixed duration. I'd save myself from getting knocked back at the price of being stuck or severely slowed for x period of time.
As an operative I'd see it as being something that might have the condition of being used from the cover position.
Knockbacks are OP as there is no availiable counterplay
