BTW, snipers don't save the lives of ambushed patrols by crapping on the torsos of dead enemy. That's a good way to trip a booby trap and get killed

A sniper who has just neutralized a target is not likely to encounter a booby trap where the target had just been. Otherwise the target would have walked into it and blown himself up prior to the sniper round being fired. Go spend some time in the infantry and walk the walk, if you are going talk the talk.

You said the sniper shot he quarry at over a mile away. Plenty of time to leave an unpleasant surprise for somebody playing or poking a dead body.
