Whether or not it functions the same as the original scopes is irrelevant. From a symbolic standpoint this is a kick to the face to Halo fans. Halo 4 had/has a disastrous number of online multiplayer users (far lower than Halo 3 and Reach) for several reasons; requiring DLC early on for popular playlists (a decision which would later be reverted when it was too late), weapons not spawning on the map, different scoring systems, severely limited options for the Flood/infection gametype even in custom games, Boltshot being overpowered, Battle Rifle not being able to four-shot (also reverted when it was too late), etc..., and I don't see why this wouldn't be added to the list.
Hopefully the beta impressions will make them change their mind.
