I cant speak to CoD specifically, but being able to locate opponents, shots, activity etc by sound is a massive advantage in many multiplayer shooters. I can personally vouch for its relevance in CS, Apex Legends, Arma 2&3, The Finals, DayZ, and Battlefield.
I’ve never used spatial audio in a CoD game - does it really give that much of an advantage in multiplayer? I doubt it but idk

COD is so twitchy I’m not sure it matters that much.
