This is what we like to call specialists, who are good at different aspects of water warfare and can adapt quickly in a situation. Sniping also cannot be fully eliminated, it's always an option in some spots. I know we still snipe where applicable, and then get out men out of the area. It's not impractical, just hard to pull off without being seen.

Sniping is still a viable and necessary task, but it is most effective when used in a pure form of specialization. For example, most teams have their members run/retreat after sniping. Running away afterwards accomplishes little, unless it is on purpose in a deception tactic. In pure position switching, sniping becomes just another task linked to other manuevers. You might have to snipe in order to set up an attack, a diversion, or to mislead the enemy. Advancing after a snipe is not what your typical enemy is expecting, nor do they make the connection between sniping being used to fool them. If your enemy is not expecting a move, it becomes really useful! Not conforming to commonly used methods of performing certain roles gives you a huge advantage. If the other team can't predict your manuevers, they are cooked!
Using sniping as part of a manuever, and not a manuever of its own, opens up much more possibilities and gives you an expanded list of options. B)
