Every game is full of them. Why? I remember that unlockables weren't really a big deal when multiplayer FPS first became popular during the Perfect Dark/Golden Eye, and Quake/Unreal Tournament (the console and PC shooter repsectively) era. But now it's like devs think it's a requirement, and unlickables are just such a crutch that MP gaming gets reallt inaccessible really fast if you came late and most people except you have all of the advantages.

This is very much my own opinion,

I believe that the scope of things has changed a lot since goldeneye, quake, UT etc. Something like BF where you have a ton of different options available to you will (I believe) leave a person in the mindset of "I like this I am going to stick with it" instead of the mindset of "Oh cool I unlocked this I am going to try and see if it works for me". It allows people to fully enjoy the content more so. You know you had a friend that once they figured out that oddjob was cheap in goldeneye always used him and then it turned into a race to see who could get him so they wouldnt.

Edit:
The games you listed are all pvp based, so cant really apply to ME
