How so?

Context matters. I've ejected players for slamming equipment, and for yelling F**K. When they do it obviously only in frustration over their own poor performance, I don't see the need. If other umpires want to eject as a matter of course without making those sorts of distinctions, I haven't made their job more difficult; they've done that to themselves.
