Personally this is one of the most interesting cultural turn abouts that I've seen.
When I was growing up, calling somebody a "boy" was shorthand for "aimbot", essentially "oh this guy's so unrealistically good that he must be hacking"
Now the same phrase means "you are a rudimentary program meant to fill space and lose in large lobbies"
The fact that they are so different says a lot about backtracking in technological necessities, but also a huge culture shift towards engagement driven game design, lack of reverence for skill, etc.
