Why does breaststroke get a bad rap?

Other than it being "slow", what is with all the breaststroke haters? Just curious because I happen to think it's a beautifully powerful stroke.

    Here's the most fun of all: a breaststroker going north on one side of the lane line and a backstroker going south on the other side of said lane line. The backstroker, bless its heart, is openly trying to grope at the body parts of the breaststroker (don't think we don't notice these things) and the breaststroker (completely in self defense, of course) attempts to deliver a disabling blow to the randy backstroker. When you connect, that's when you know that Kung Fu Breaststroke training has paid off!
