I don't agree with this, there's a stark difference between placing a random ass betty/clay in the hope that someone may stumble in it and launching tubes into an enemy spawn killing people before they can even pull their weapon out.
If you watch where you're going, you're significantly less likely to be killed by a betty or clay, also the stealth perk works properly on this mod, but there's no avoiding tubes, people say flak jacket but honestly it's too weak to be any use. You can have flak jacket and still die from a nade, it's as much use as a chocolate teapot.
