Self proclaimed classic police is full of confirmation bias.
They find a information suddenly confirming with the most simple of test, available since launch, an exp penalty 8 month after the release. 8 month!
What do they do ? Proclaim it evidence that a penalty was at launch...

I'm looking and I can't find anyone doing this "simple test" before then. Feel free to help, mate.
Here's a post from a thread in May 1999 about mage pets and xp:

The way I heard it explained many times in beta was:
- Solo Pet shares its master's experience
- If grouped but Pet not getting killing blow it still only shares its
master's experience
- If grouped and it gets the killing blow it gets a share of the group's experience.

No one else in the thread presents an opposing theory or contradicts him. Main topic of conversation is whether this penalty also applies to the group.
If the source of this info was the official players manual that would help explain why it was so widely believed.
