So it's OK to be sneaky/deceptive and infiltrate the enemy to shoot them in the back in a scenario but a Dead Man's Walk is a cardinal sin on the speedball field? Seems to me to be 6 of one and a half dozen of the other.

I'll never understand the double standards paintball players live with and often embrace.

Anyway..IMHO the ref's job is to pull eliminated players. Whether it be from friendly fire or a spy the player is eliminated just the same. Keeping it "quiet" seems to be helping the spy and thereby aiding the spy's team. A ref should do the same job the same way no matter what the circumstances or he could be accused of showing favoritism.
