Or the kinds of people who disagree with the notion that the best way to boost a pure DPS class is to boost its DPS.

I agree, there's a number of ways that SAM could be improved and it doesn't have to be flat DPS per se. It's a potential fix, but it's more likely that giving it some kind of better (rDPS) utility would serve it better.
