I'm not having problems with them. Balance was the topic of this thread, and I am just pointing out that they are imbalanced - probably the most glaring imbalance in the game. I agree that if you wanted to, you could do things to counter them like taking arm-mounted weapons, etc.
The closest equivalent on the IS side is obviously the flea, but they have 2/3 the firepower of a piranha, with at best a very minor durability advantage. It's pretty clear that piranhas are outperforming fleas on the battlefield. They also have a higher engine cap.
