Look in the upper-left-hand corner: R&N built this place to re-create the game of 1999-2001. If you start deciding what mechanics to keep and which ones not to, you're making a new "balanced" game ... not classic EQ.

R&N have been doing precisely that for the last 11 years - deciding what mechanics to keep and which ones not to (or which new ones to throw in), in order to recreate classic feel, or at least get as close to it as reasonably possible.
Rooting dragons, nerfing clickies, forbidding multiboxing, adding /list, limiting AE to 25... the list can go on and on.
Limiting the amount of NPC's attacking one particular target to 4 would open a Pandora's box of new exploits or at least "creative-exploitive gameplay" that nor them, me or you want to see hit the server.
