In the meta it's basically impossible to NOT use EMs just because of how good OP they are.
You are basically forced.
Yeah you CAN hit the cornes and side of a hitbox, and everyone can see it coming a mile away. And no it's not their game. Sure they can do what they want and people can quit, but you're talking a situation nobody wants. Players have an important role in keeping things in check. If devs did what they wanted, you'd be playing a totally different game. Or you might even not be playing at all. Trust me.
It's not a skill issue if you can't hit people with EM. It's a skill issue if you can't avoid the thing now. The only thing keeping the weapon alive is AI bots. Were there not AI bots in the game, you'd be singing a different tune.
