Most definately not.
Call me crazy, but, I like my games with a little balance.
Y'know, where the spawn weapon isn't the best weapon in the game.
The pistol itself isn't balanced, but having a powerful spawn weapon adds its own sense balance. It takes out much of the luck factor. If you get a bad spawn point, you won't necessarily die. Whoever spawns closest to the best weapon, won't necessarily win.
Also, the pistol is the most well-rounded weapon, but a sniper rifle or rocket launcher could take it down. A shotgun at close range could take it down. A plasma rifle freeze followed by a melee can take it down. It's doesn't appear unbeatable to me, but even if it is, you spawn with one too.
