There is a counter to SLB, it's called blocking. I suggest Dark Hand and there is also armor that defends from lightning. As a faith build his physical damage is lower then someone who focused solely on physical damage. The fact he had GMB to help offset his lower damage output with higher defenses is a common strategy for faith builds (not to mention with how common dark bead is, it's always good to have if you can use it) But hey you wanna complain about utilization of spells as a counter to something, let me use TWoP and sunlight spear you. Or would me using a strategy to utilize by build to the fullest be considered cheap and warrant a DB use?

And as for your DBs, the only way we know how you got them is by your claim of 10 playthroughs, so excuse the large majority of the dark souls community that believes your a modder cause you popped a DB.
