1) Is it viable? When I mean viable, is it something that can be effective at the highest levels of competition? If so, how well do you do? Do you always have to engage someone from behind to win? Or can you and the enemy see each other come from cover at the same time, and you still have a good chance of winning said engagement, or is running necessary?
2) Where does the smg win? For example, up close vs. AR user? Mass driver user? Is there a range where it has advantage over shotgun? Does it require high levels of sidearm sharpshooter to gain said advantage? Is this considering the enemy also has the same level of sharpshooter range too?
3) Is it not viable, thus why it's a sidearm? Lol
4) Does it do better in a certain game mode? Better in skirmish? Better in ambush? If good in ambush, how many kills do you average? I ask this to judge how many encounters a player is having while using smg's to relate to playstyle. Also if reporting kills keep in mind I am asking for smg kills, not grenades or remote explosives as these can be used with any build.
I have seen the dual smg vid, seems more like an exception rather than a new discovery.
Thank you in advance to anyone taking the time to read/respond to my post /questions.

Scouts can strafe like theres no tomorow so a a guy who skills into SMG use, range, and damage mods cam create a very damaging short range, high ROF build.

As I appreciate the response what I am asking for is a much more detailed account of this build. This is why I have numbered the questions and asked specific questions about this build to give not only me, but anyone else interested in this build concrete evidence that smg scout is viable.
In the example you provided, although you were somewhat specific in a build where smg scout can do well, it doesn't aid much in the overall question. How viable is it? And what circumstances make it so?
Ill try to clarify using your example. If someone is using you above mentioned build, and they come across a shotgunner or AR user, or any other weapon, does the smg scout have the advantage? If so, under what circumstances? I ask this last part because if the smg user only has an advantage if they get the drop on their enemy, then that does not make the weapon viable as one can argue that using probably any other weapon in the game, would also give the scout the advantage.
Once again I appreciate your input, and any further input the thread may receive, thank you for your time.
