.. if you perused the vztz forums at all, you would know that there are rarely fraps posted of trains (like 1 per month maybe?).

Thats really a testament to how ineffective relying on Fraps is in terms of policing trains. Only the most blatant of blatant trains get caught - i.e. a bard strolling up solo to a raid, stopping to wait for mobs, then running in.
I get the argument that training will keep the population down, and I'd rather have no rules (sans MQ and what not) than what we had on VZTZ - a rulebook that was impossible to enforce.
For me, it's more an issue of knowing where you stand rather than advocating trains as being healthy. Then again, who plays Everquest PvP for the actual combat? The fun in EQ PvP is resource control and the ability to be a complete shit head to people - you can find more skilled/involved combat in literally every other MMORPG to date.
Hardcoded rules work too as long as what they prevent outweighs the ability to exploit any loopholes. Something as simple as a client crash when you aggrod more than X mobs in PoHate or PoFear would solve a ton more problems than it would create.
