I think you missed the point.  Incremental bidders are a problem for 
people who *don't* snipe.  If you put in a snipe bid, people don't get a 
chance to incrementally bid against you, and you tend to get the item 
for a lower price than if they had sniped or put in their max bid price.

Sniping is only a problem for those who haven't figured out how to make 
ebay bidding work for them. :)
