Simple. Nobody likes being blindsided by something and getting punished for it. Even more so when it comes to games because you are being punished for a "mistake" when said warning or tell wasn't even well telegraphed or even foreshadowed at all. And snipers induce unneeded stress just because how much they influence a map without said warning that they could or couldn't even be there in the first place.
This whole "It takes skill" to pull off is just a cope when only other snipers and maybe air support can properly interact with other sniper characters and nobody is going to waste air support to kill one guy who will just respawn again in 10 seconds. 90% of snipers in games have no movement, if somebody can do a massive amount of damage they either have to get in close, have it be a limited special or shoot a slow moving projectile to which sniper violates all of these practices. His only "weakness" is easily countered with skill and quick scopes while all the other types of weapons or classes have hard counters that are purely mechanical and can't change no matter how skilled you are.

Nice dishonest strawman you got going on. Even when I get blind sided by a scout I could have at least either heard him or I was being punished for not checking my flanks/ advancing too far from my team.
