Deer hunters as a group are generally wound too tight and need to chill out and have respect for one another.What's "right" to one group may be "wrong" to another.
Deer may respond to attractants, be it bait, artificial scrapes, even decoys,but bait and scents just don't work absolutely every time:Certainly not enough to get into an ethics battle over.A hunter that has freshened scrapes or invested time and manpower into a foodplot may feel satisfied that he has outsmarted the deer via prehunt preparation.But,it has been my experience that attractants do not work miraculously on deer, like they do on migratory birds or turkeys(which seem to materialize out of thin air when corn or wheat is present.)The best virtues a deer hunter can have are patience and luck.
