I think you know this and are being intentionally dishonest because AE kiting benefits yourself.
Also, Syft is making the argument that this isn't a fair way of leveling entire groups of people, not just a solo bard. You're severely underestimating how much someone can block you from xping this way on a pvp server.

Take 20 minutes to gather a pull in one of the karanas just to get pelled / snared / rooted or otherwise ganked without getting the xp. Then spend another 10-20 running back naked from HHK / Qeynos / wherever and risk being corpse camped or killed again in pvp. On top of the normal risks you run from PVE.

Breaking bard AE kiting will not stop the devoted from powergaming to level 50 within a week of server coming up.
