the gamer™ sees it as ruining the "integrity" of the game. they think because they can't do literally anything else other than play games that they must be really good at it and it's their special skill so anything they can "achieve" they hold above their head (like finishing a game that the devloper intented for the average person to complete), and it makes them absolutely sick to their stomach that someone might "cheat" (use the bare minimum accessibility features that they need) to finish the same game.

or they just like eugenics or are at least sympathetic to its ideas no need to invent some complicated psychology for them.
