Doesn't really matter how you like to sugar coat it, if someones entire play style revolves around never moving off one base and just doing cute timing attacks pulling half your workers and just praying you kill the guy then and there, it's a style that whilst is working well for people right now as people are still optimizing the 'standard' builds in this game, will simply get less and less effective as there's a very low skill ceiling on what the one-basers are doing and they will optimize it very quickly, meanwhile everyone else will keep on getting better and better, and the one-basers results if they continue to play this way will fade into insignificance.

there will always be a place for these strats in the game, in fact you almost need to play like this every once in a while if you're playing tournaments, because otherwise people will just punish your macro heavy style by playing even more economically aggressive and crush you mid-game anyway, however the players that simply 1-base over and over and over (ladder is plagued with these, because A) it's MUCH easier than playing for the late-game in mind, and B) it's not like you need to win a Bo3/5/7 series in ladder, its just singular games against random people that you're likely to not run into again for quite a while C)Half of climbing the ladder is gaming as much as possible, obviously the quicker you can win the better it is for climbing the ladder), are not going to progress as a player very far and they're just going to find their results getting worse rather than better.
