The Box Trot is too effective for a taunt.
Spy's box taunt should have additional tremble animation when he is being shot at or when someone is touching him. Or even make him to go out of his box entirely. Also spy shouldn't be able to cap and block capping the point while taunting. That would make it worse c&d, you are not invisible entirely but you still blend in. Video where you can see this abuse: https://youtu.be/9PZ_Tt4FT-M?t=47s

After that it still could be considered to be a weapon and not a purely cosmetic taunt. Since you can't stand in one place with invis watch or DR and this gives you at least some stealth. Maybe it could have some sound effect, cigarette smoke particle or animation loop so it's will not blend in the background so much? Or maybe just make it to be equipable with c&d only?

Or just make it new a watch and add crafting recipe for it.

You can't just have fun with a taunt or they have to remove it and you will cry again?

This is one of the few situations where "git gud" is all you need to say.

I didn't suggest removing the taunt.

Git gut at what? At learning about new cosmetics added to the game?

Shooting a moving box.

You're right, it is too effective. I can't tell where all these spies are!

Probably trolling.
I think most people don't shoot at the box spies because it is essentially the next spycrab.

Video shows it is too effective.

As you can see it is not the case in the video. Knowing about all the cosmetic items shouldn't give you an advantage gameplay wise.

I will repeat the others... If people can't see a damn MOVING BOX, which is also CONSIDERABLY DIFFERENT than the environment, they deserve to lose.
btw, someone capped a flag with the taunt. I was on the opposing team, and it was hilarious looking at the guy using the taunt in pair with the intel.

You can stand still while taunting.
