I'd wager many if not most who are against it have never done it, myself included...
My take is that the perception is that it's:
1) very effective
2) used mostly by comms
3) has a high mortality
Now, knowing little about it, I have no data to say if there really is high mortality or not. For all I know break offs could be very rare and the method could simply be very effective at catching large bass.
But considering the poaching that many believe (or know) to be happening...the image of a person using a potentially high mortality technique to poach fish at the expense of the legal fisherpeople is easy to imagine for many, regardless if it's legitimate or not.
Thats at least why I think so many are against it.
