Scholar's mate is an elementary tactic. Anyone with any chess experience has a decent way to refute it.

There are two variations that the scholars mate player hopes you arrive on:

A) Missing the initial mate

B) Blundering the pawn and rook sequence

Now basically the moment you reach like, even 600, people stop falling for it. At this point making the moves E3/4, Bc4, and Qh5/f3 is literally just you announcing to your opponent "I think youre dumb as hell and will fall for this" which IMO is a statement that isn't fit in chess.

It just becomes more insulting when you properly refute Scholars mate with the most analyzed line in the history of chess and then they still continue to try and force the mate as if you don't know what they are doing.

In low bracket chess, this is a level where people just don't know what youre doing and its a valid attack, but at what rating does attempting to do this just become disrespectful and has no place in chess?

Anywhere past the 1000 bracket when you attempt this it's literally just banking on your opponent being stupid and announcing that you believe them to be stupid. It's honestly no different then going into the chat and typing "You're a fucking moron and you're going to lose" and then making the moves, because that's the only mindset you have when attempting this.

Now, in time attack modes (Like extremely low times when people have to premove openings a lot) it's fairly valid as an anti premove or just cheese, but it's not making the clear disrespectful view of the opponent.

I genuinely think a line should be drawn about when this """opening""" is sportsmanlike anymore. For anyone with a brain cell it's not difficult to refute and is just plain an insult and waste of a game.
