Why do people hate Starknol?

Hey! I'm a bit new to the game and have only been playing a few months, but I was wondering why people liked targeting Starknols?

I've played as quite a few creatures and none of them have been targeted as bad as my Starknol, even some of my larger ones. I mean, I don't really do anything when playing as it besides heal people, float around in the water, and circle around little guys.

Is there a reason for this or is it just a coincidence? Like, is it just an easy kill? Or should I not be playing Stark because of a controversial reason?

I'm not particularly upset or anything, just curious!!
