FD splitting and pulling was not part of the "vision" at all.
They never thought about 99% of the stuff in the game, they didn't even know what they were making at the time.

Nah I believe the devs have said they envisioned that kiting might be a strategy with snare, which was why DoT damage being reduced if not snared was quickly added in the classic era when the devs realized that yes kiting was being used, which was expected, but that people weren't actually using snare to help do it because they could just outrun with SoW etc.
