The issue is that every other faction has access to wire cutters at T0 and 30 munitions.
Except the UKF.
That is the problem.
Especially if the fuel point is on the other side of that wire you really don't have time to wait around to unlock T1 (2?) buy a sapper squad, unlock wire cutters and THEN cut the wire.
Expect, they cant/dont need to unlock wirecutters when they can use the "destory cover" ability, for free, and does a more effective job than wirecutters?
Have you even played UKF?
So there delayed abit on there combat engi inf but get the most effective wire clearing ability of all the factions, for free.
