[Suicide Junkie]

Well, I have great contempt for the game "rock/paper/scissors", for people who waste their time for it, and I am dumbfounded by people who see it as a principle of game design.

There is also the card game of "War", and betting on coin flips.
Rock/Paper/Scissors can be useful, too; not as a game in itself, but as a random number generator for "SE4 on Paper" during a car ride, it works well.

To the point:
The RPS analogy can validly be used to describe the idea that there should be no UberTech.

That dosen't nessesarily mean the speaker wants to make a pointless RPS mod. Don't get too upset over the use of RPS in a non-derogatory sentence
