The problem, as I see it, with this mindset is that if you take it to the logical extreme then you could argue for the removal of anything in the game that isn't a test of mechanical skill. Why do we need a circle? A timer? A respawn mechanism? Survey beacons? Zip rails? Phase runners? Even loot? Just spawn in with a gun and start shooting until only one player is left standing. And what would that prove? Who has the best aimbot?
They can be annoying, but they do serve a purpose. I say keep 'em. It's not as if they're on every map, and it's not as if battle royale was ever about nothing more than aim. It's supposed to be a complex game type where shooting is important but not the entire game. Even in a ranked mode. Especially in a ranked mode, I'd say.
