I'm never against any idea just to be an asshat. But I doubt you're going to see many future patches for RO at this point (maybe none at all). And frankly I'd rather see that limited amount of time and manpower put into fixing some of the issues and refining overall gameplay than in putting in another weapon. And even if you count modeling as a seperate workstream I'd much rather have weapons like the Nagant revolver, the Maxim M1910 or maybe a C96 than this rather rare submachine gun. We have enough diversity in automatic small arms.
I also don't see the issue presented. On maps where the MP44 is available i still see some people picking the MP40, simply for style (like me). I also doubt many of those who pick the MP44 now would prefer a nerfed PPSh over it, simply because the MP44 is superior to even an full power PPSh, except for maybe at very close range.
This weapon would be a very nice addition to a mod. But for retail, it's just not important enough. Of course you can say the same about the MP41 but seriously, this gun was just added to the official repertoire because someone had done the model and it was all too easy to just adapt the code, sound and animations.
