Snipers had been using graphite coated 0.36g BBs for years, would you rather get hit by a graphite powder coated BB or an aluminum powder coated BB of the same weight? I highly doubt those are "Aluminum coated", either they are graphite coated and mistaken to be aluminum (some mis-informed would refer to the graphite coated BBs as "metal" coated BBs), or they are solid aluminum (which would be used only for steel silhouette target shooting, not gaming). I used to have some alumium BBs, solid aluminum, they weighted in at 0.29g................. weren't all that great either. I've never heard of anyone using aluminum BBs at games, too hard to find, expensive and not that great quality, but they would likely be forbidden from use if anyone showed up with some.
