Pulling 100's of mobs takes a lot of time, and is instant death if something goes wrong (as well as inconveniencing others IMO). The recent aggro changes would also make social pulling impossible I think, so you have to damage every mob. I'd think that would remove much of the time benefit of doing it that way.
On the social agro... as long as you tag something of the same type of enemy, social agro still kinda works... Ive used this to pull extra mobs by pathing my train through them. They catch the anger of their pissed off brethren and rampage after me. Seems to work.
