like i said. this only assumes the egocentric view of you getting as many frags as quickly as possible.
competitive play is team-based, so it makes sense to ban it there.

also, i forgot to mention: melee heavy is slow...everyone can back up from you and then shoot.

The the main downside to the BB is the fact you take away an entire rocket for a minor health gain. While it's not exactly one of those weapons that rewards spam instead of skill (grenade launcher, Enforcer, etc) but it amounts to the same issue - they're fun, but killing people with them doesn't seem nearly as impressive when you consider the most common circumstances the kills is achieved in, and in most cases relying on that weapon means you're fundamentally playing the class not to it's fullest potential.
I'll use the grenade launcher as the best example. People just M1 the thing and fire over hills, around coners, and hope the other team is dumb enough to run into or over the nades. This means you're not advancing, and not actually actively killing things. The Loch takes away two rounds, but for an increase explosion radius and damage spread. Going with the loch means you have to aim, but in so doing, that group you were throwing 20 damage nades on the floor in front of now gets hit, and probably gibbed. The sentry you were waiting for a medic to get an uber to take down you can now hit twice and still live to continue pushing forward (and in the case of a wrangled sentry - first hit kills the engy, reload while the shield goes down, fire fire, same end result).
But if it's fun for you, go for it.

sorry but did you just bring up ADD shooter extraordinaire quake and say that it's a better game in the same discussion that you basically said the rocket launcher isn't good?
how to play quake: camp the lightning gun spawn, memorize the teleporter exits, install skins that make player models solid bright lime green and every wall solid grey, learn how to jump special. boom you're a pro in such a deep and complex game

so you're saying my description of "jump special" is accurate
