That was kinda my point.
The same really could be said about CoH1 too. People don't often disagree that they can't be countered, but they usually agree that it's frustratingly boring gameplay to do so.
As long as you can counter players using emplacements reliably, you are not going to see them often enough to get bored. Shocking it may seem, people learn from their defeats, even the ones who spam emplacements.
