I suppose people who do things like this just think they're being clever rather than cheating, and their lack of an in-universe view of the game allows them to do such things without it cheapening the experience for them. Maybe for some the essence is that if you've been killed you have to wait five seconds, and then face the challenge of catching up if someone stole the flag near you, or something; but maybe for others there is a transcendence of the universe of the game such that they see fit to solve the problem at hand however possible using the tools made available. And maybe this seems more justifiable to them if the tools are available by default rather than at lengthy and deliberate effort.
