The pilot mafia will never stop crying about anti-air, and DICE will never stop catering to them.
The "pilots of battlefield" want to go 150-0 in every round, never get shot down and don't care that they ruin lobbies and kill games because eventually they run out of targets because the other 60 players get bored of having matches decided entirely by the best little bird pilot.
The sad thing is that BF6 has the least oppressive air vehicles since Battlefield 1942. Even with all the nerfs.
2042 for example there was literally nothing good to use for anti-air because DICE systematically nerfed into the ground every single weapon that could be used for anti-air, and UFO physics for the vehicles so they could spin up and down doing flips and barrel rolls.
No-one else in the game gets the magic defenses like Pilots do.
Magic flares & below radar, both of which work no matter what type of weapon is fired at them (why would below radar work on a heat seeker? why would magic flares work on a painted javelin shot?) and it makes them practically invincible.
