Yeah, I did get the joke 
Why does flying around make strafing pointless? Remember that you don't have to strafe to gain maximum speed except for when turning with current... settings. Apart from that rocket flying is different in that you can actually FLY. Which is per se a good reason to have it in Xonotic.
I see that it get's abused in CTF matches but then again everybody can do it. And if it for example does significantly more damage to flag carriers than to other players, then this issue can be countered. Also you can't stack health that much anymore.
Personally, I totally support the wish to have rocket flying enabled in some way.
