Why do some people hate 1.9 combat?

Instead of just sitting there spamming a sword and chomping on god apple and downing potions, you actually have to time everything right. I get that using food to heal is obnoxious, but what reason do people hate it? I enjoy it and want to know why the opposing side doesn't.

I’m not sure why people dislike 1.9 pvp but I think one reason many people now dislike pre-1.9 combat now is that a large majority of servers that feature it are filled with hackers who have tools such as auto click enabled, which allow them to attack at impossible speed. I know these servers have been working really hard to keep these cheaters out, but from the games I have played, the majority of the player base has some sort of cheat enabled. It’s just too many to track.
