Simple. The number of trophies on offer is based solely on the difference in trophies between the attacker and the defender. You lost 50 because you had a lot more trophies than they did when they revenged you. This has nothing to do with TH level.
If I were a low TH I would. The chances of one your targets revenging you is low. However, let's say you're right and it has a chilling effect on sniping. Why would that be such a bad thing?
