From the Developer's Letter:

In fact, the majority of changes made to classes in the name of balance in the last year were based on the assumption that, at the high end, each class should still be roughly as needed and balanced as any other."
How do you read that as "absolutely intended"?
Having the ability to instantly port/mobilize by gating and selecting from 12 different locations all over the world isn't overpowered? It was so overpowering, Verant/SoE removed the ability to bind there within a week or two of Kunark opening and people finding that room.
It is your opinion that item recharging "breaks the game". The fact remains that if it was that game-breaking or overpowered, Verant/SoE would have moved to make the buyback prices to insane levels much earlier. Or made it so rechargeable items couldn't be sold to vendors. Or any variety of ways they could have fixed it.
