Then we should fix Engineer's Pistol as well, because it having 200 ammo was also originally a bug. You can't fix something after seven years because all of a sudden it's a bug and not a feature according to... whom even?
It also actually gives even MORE advantage to the second shooter, not the other way around, because scoping now makes you even more of a sitting duck. On top of that, what I find more important than Sniper wars getting even slower is that this really punishes Snipers trying to quickscope soldiers, giving them even less of a chance in an already terrible situation.
In the end it's not even about the change itself; even though it affects the game negatively it is incredibly minor, so it's not something worth getting riled up about. What does annoy me however is that this change is added out of nowhere about something I have personally never even heard of, over the dozens of much bigger issues people have complained about for months (and in some cases even years)
