I haven't said what the emu devs should do about it, just pointing out the facts. But clearly it's broken.

I really do like what you said here in this last statement because I think it is exactly what the "opposing side" of the debate is critical of. You say that there were hoards of hybrids on live. True. Then you say its poor game design, but this is a subjective matter.
Regardless of this, the point is that whether or not it's a poor game design, there were hoards of hybrids on live, or even if everyone on live understood about min/maxing but just decided to play what they want, your entire argument results in a single conclusion. You say that you aren't saying what the P99 people should do to remedy the situation, then state that it's broken. Something broken usually demands repair from diligent owners, and your repair is implicit throughout what youre trying to say. Remove the penalty.
This server is not classic eq. It never will be classic eq. We need to all stop living like (excuse the douche literary reference) Emma Bovary-- meaning that the ideal of a classic experience is possible if I can just clench my anus as hard as I did 15 years ago when I enter Fear. Accept the game how it is, adapt, roll with the punches, meet new people, have a good time, and perhaps stir some fond memories from times past.
My opinion on the matter is that I'm playing this game free of charge. I'm not sure if the P99 staff is paying for this monetarily (perhaps they get donations), but they are certainly paying for this server in some fashion. Play the game until its no longer fun, then move on, and perhaps along the way we can stop being douches to each other.
Blah blah blah, lets all bicker some more
