Why would someone EVER want to use a sniper over a rocket launcher, especially for PvE? Just another screw up on Bungies part. They can buff snipers all they want. Nobody is ever going to use them.
Edit 1: number 3 on trending. At what point does Bungie put the weaon system back to D1's?
Edit 2: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/243727030/0/0 something else I just thought about.

Rockets are easier to use. That said some guy was just destroying my team in the Crucible with a sniper the other day so there's not doubt that they can be effective.
