Here it is again, since you're evidently blind:

Or another reason for that could be that I'm on a small island in Thailand right now with unstable internet and only my phone, so I'm not responding to everyone quoting me and your arguments are not really that strong.
That's a moot point, the only time you see bunny hopping is in cqc situations.

But cqc is not limited to encounters under 5m. For example if you fight around a tower you will have fights everywhere from 0 to 75m. Bunny hoping only helps on VERY short range if you shoot. Have you actually tried it? It fucks up your aim pretty hard, try hitting something beyond 10m while jumping around. Maybe VS weapons are not affected that much, but NC weapons definitely are.
It makes perfect sense. The guy bunny hopping can anticipate the vertical movement, because he is the one controlling it. The opposition is forced to react, which means he is penalized for reaction times much more heavily then the attacker. This means the attacker has a huge advantage when compensating for vertical shift.

You are right on that one, the active player has the advantage by knowing when the movement will happen. Just like when he is strafing or taking cover.
Please. That argument is utterly ridiculous. You can't claim something is theoretically balanced simply because everyone can do it. That's like claiming an OP weapon is balanced because everyone theoretically has access to it.

No it's not. An op weapon or vehicle is not available to you instantly all the time. But you could ALWAYS bunny hop if you wanted to, immediately and in every situation. It might be something you don't like but it can't be OP. There is no situation where you can NOT do it, so it can't be unfair. By that logic strafing or taking cover can be called OP too, which is stupid.
This is called "bad game play". Bunny hopping promotes bad game play based on a disproportionate difficulty-to-reward ratio.

I think you have not tried it, because I believe the downsides are so big that bunny hopping isn't worth it. Except maybe with these infrared scopes that doesn't really make sense and should be fixed.
Now if you just hate it just say so, I don't mind and it's a valid opinion. But don't try to cover it up in some kind of false logic that doesn't exist. I wouldn't mind if they added stamina and you could only jump 3 times before you run out of it... Buy it's actually no real problem worth spending precious programmer time on.
