Is Scav Violence Truly Solved?

While the new karma system is nice for allowing teamwork among player scavs, there are some caveats. More times than not, I have found myself practically given an execution by another player scav the moment they realize I have high-priority items. Because the -0.05 penalty for the first kill on another scav is not all that bad if it is by itself when you find yourself alone with another player scav and you have some beefy gear from a dead PMC, a large portion of the time the player scav will take the opportunity to kill you unless they themselves have a decent amount of gear themselves. This is also the case with looting raiders. About half the scav raids I have done on reserve have resulted in my death purely because another player scav has noticed that I am looting or have looted a raider or two. What's frustrating about this is that I am discouraged from shooting them first because then I'm the one losing karma and usually these greedy hostile scavs appear to be friendly at first. Anyways, my only idea to try to solve this problem, if it is as significant as I make it to be, is to increase the penalty for killing other player scavs. Perhaps adding some better communication. If anyone has any ideas on how I should deal with these situations let me know.
