I have to disagree. SD isn't that bad if you think very hard.

There are very simple ways how you can protect yourself from them , the least you can do is have a character with 4/5 luck and have a decent amount of HP with MA in one of the worst case scenarios , then you have a chance to actually survive those SD sneaks. Very important thing is to pay attention and have a keybind on SS , since you have let's say 5 luck it's a quite low chance to get bypassed from that autocrit( it's usually from what the most damage comes , bypasses ). If you have CA or Tesla , you don't have to fear them at all if you have medium amount of luck. 10 luck ensures 0% chance to get bypassed and if you wear CA or Tesla on a sniper , they can't really kill you with 2 grenades , of course if you don't have some wannabe sniper 137 HP build. Gatling owns any sneaker SD builds.
The point is , though players say SD is so powerful , it actually isn't. There's many ways how to protect yourself from them. Then again against normal crit bursters there is nothing you can do , if you get shot critically by an avenger or gatling gun your as good as dead. Bypass or not , it's irrelevant.
Both bad designs , only one is much more worse than the other if you think rationally.
