That was the whole point of FD pulling. Theres a chance that mobs will forget just by feigning. I played a monk up until the end of velious, so I have not be polluted by non-classic mechanics that you kids are familiar with.

Scenario: you pull 3 mobs. You FD, the mobs start to path back 1 at a time, spacing them out. You stand, 1 or 2 of the mobs would forget you. If you were lucky, the mobs farthest away would be the ones that forgot. Otherwise, the farthest mobs would reagro those nearer that lost agro upon feigning.

Read the quote above from EQmac, where FD pulling seems to still work in a somewhat classic fashion.
I agree with you on this one. It was exactly like you describe. When you feign death some would forget, some wouldn't. Thus standing up would cause some to come at you, all, or none. And that is what feign death splitting was.
I also played a monk all the way from kunark until the LDoN era. This is how it was the whole time.
