It wasn't an insult, lol
It was both. He meant it seriously, in a humorous manner.
Mat Noguchi once said that Pistol sniping whores need to die, and Frankie agreed with him (pre-H2 interview).
It wasn't both. It's like saying everyone would BR whore in Halo 2, and 3. It's the truth, but it's not an insult. I don't know how any one could see it as an insult. Do you really think anyone from 343 would say that insultingly? Talk about bad press. They know people love the pistol, and they were just poking fun at that.
I didn't think of it as an insult like "YOU IDIOT", I was thinking of almost the same way you do. It's not like saying BR WHORE because BR whoring was much, much easier to combat (except in h2 cus of auto aim).
If you got a pistol in CE, it was basically a game over for the others.
