Like rolling for the AC ring. (if that were a thing) After losing the roll being told you now have to help kill the AC. Wait, what?
What the losers have to gain is that when they eventually win there will be a team of randos already there to help them also. This is why it's such a bad look to roll and bail.

I also don't like the argument that scout roll "isn't classic". It's a perfectly organic agreement that emerged from the playerbase. That could have easily happened on a classic server too, cause there were many classic servers not just one. And they were different. The whole notion of objectively "classic" mechanics is kind of silly in many ways, given the fundamental design of the game. Hard numbers and formulas? Sure, those are objective. That's about it. Cause it's an MMO.
