I find people funny with their old player base was too dumb ideas.

I was 12 years old when I started playing everquest. When the game first came out it had a lot of kids and teens playing, which is a rare occasion today.

No one remembers them being top DPS there. My hypothesis is that if it worked as well on live as it does here, and if people were doing it, then knowledge so basic would have spread.
But charming didn't spread: no one remembers Enchanters being DPS at all, let alone top.

"Playing the enchanter is by far no easy task, but reaps the greatest benefits, and definitely earns the title of being the '
best' pure caster."
"The enchanter may be looked upon as weak, as they are in certain areas. Their damage output is very low, and their pets are weak. But proper manipulation of their spells will cause the
enchanter to outperform any other class, it's just a matter of using the correct spell"

EverQuest Stratics
Charming did in fact spread, each expansion provided more tools for an enchanter to use.
I'm not completely against Loramin, I agree there might be some technical differences such as mobs lvl 35+ may have had higher mr which would have made them more resistant to charm. Dolalin has done tons of research on classic eq mechanics and even he has trouble finding the data. While doing my own research I found more websites devoted to roleplaying rather than technical data.
