There is no need to argue, for teamgames its a fact. Power of rifles comes exclusively from picking favourable engagements, flanking and 1v1ing. And even in 2v2 you more often then not fight your opponent face to face with very little room to actually win by out positioning and rifles are only good at that, in fair combat they are garbage for 280MP squad.
If anyone thinks riflemen are good in team games they need their head checking.
