This isn't really an accurate interpretation of this event. Hans examined the reality of aimed and sighted fire, and made a judgement that if you're doing these things, you're not capable of perceiving actions by other foes, nor interrupting your maneuver with a defense. He both shoots and has done a ridiculous amount of research about experts that shoot, and made the judgement that these two maneuvers (and especially Aim + Attack) required total focus. This is to aid the "Literal" interpretation of the maneuver. Simulation in a particular idiom.
It was not the feelings of a particular "crowd" with respect to game mechanics. It was not an attempt to "nerf" Aim. It was a recogniation that when simulating the behavior of real-world shooters, the kind of global awareness and ability to do anything other than aim and shoot is basically zero. It was not a game-mechanical desicion, but a simulationist one.
As always, Rule Zero applies. If you want to allow Aim and Attack, booyah. Go ahead.
