I guess this is the point where we agree to disagree. I think it's incredibly illogical to think that there were many multiples more Druids on live, all trying to earn XP as quickly as they could ... but not a one was willing to try using a spell on their list.
Or actually, it's worse than that: we know for a fact that there were Druid charm guides back then! So really you're arguing not only that people ignored their own spell list, but also that they ignored explicit guides telling them to charm ,,, despite the fact that it could mean faster XP.
That doesn't at all sounds like how EverQuest players (in any era) were.

Early EQ players were bad compared to EQ players now due to the knowledge glut. I imagine most of them would try to charm a snake or something for gimmicks in groups but wouldn't think to make it into a leveling style, or they tried to do charm killing, tried to charm a high DB, found that it broke constantly, gave up, and went back to nuking shit down. I'm sure some druids were doing it for sure, but it was by no means common knowledge in early EQ. Don't forget the internet was very different then, the free flow of information more viscous.
