Well I'm disappointed. I do recall seeing and participating in CPM request for sniper rifle issues, yet I see no fix for the SR mentioned in this thread.
I guess with the calmando now FOTM AV, I can dust those suits off and become fulltime AV.
Better yet, I'll just do the sane thing and stop playing yet once again.

Being squishy and easy to kill is the trade-off for having the best ewar, and fastest suits as well as the ability to be invisible The worst is if you can know for sure and count on that you are absolutely unscannable. The balance should be that if both the stealther and scanner both do the extreme sacrifices, the scanner should barely win.
Hmm sacrifice. That is a good point. I agree that the bigger sacrifice should win, but not in the area that you presume.
Thinking about what you said just proved to me you don't think things through otherwise you would have saw the glaring hole in your glass straw argument you have brought up.
For starters, fitting a scanner does not affect your survivability what so ever. It does not make you sacrifice either hp or hp recovery rates. Dampeners do. Even a cal or min scout has to decide how much of hp and hp recovery they give up to not be scanned. Even still, being spotted cloaked or uncloaked is a death sentence to a few rounds from an aim assisted weapon, sidearms included.
Now we need to look into the slot count to be unscanned vs scans. I damp will get most scouts by for the most part, but precision mods, proto scanners, and line of sight negates the module outright. At 2 damps (and the isk cost of both) shield or armour based suits both give up alot of hp and hp recovery dramatically. Getting shot by a stray round could be death. That is part of it too, complex dampeners are the only viable source to offset any form of scan. basic and adv do not gain any net worth over the hp and hp recovery.
At the end of the day, your argument is based on a glass straw hat theory. The scout gives up survivability. The active scanner allows you to live easier.
