I think I agree with Exodus's thoughts on trying to maintain a balanced game, or rather fixing unbalanced issues rather than work arounds for them. I don't think the solution to something that annoys you is removing it completely. Currently with explosives there are several things that you can do to stop them from being effective. Breakers stop teleporters, nets can stop a tank in its tracks, and honestly if you let the person with explosives get right next to you, then you are going to die. If you are using all extremely short ranged weapons then it sounds like explosives might be a counter to your playing style.
