Fools mate!!

Why do so many players go for the Scholars Mate? I have to defend it and attack it so much. 99% of the time I win, but I feel like it doesn't make me a better player. Will I see it less when if rating rises?

At your level lots of players arent interested in playing that long games so they go for quick 4 move mates because they are lazy.You will see it less after the 1100 level.You could try filtering your avg opponent rating
