How much other stuff is getting changed based on player's "solid recollection" vs. verifiable evidence?

Yender does have a point, and it's that *Some spells* have a level restrction. Cited Source:

June 11, 2003

- Spell level limits now enforced - Some high level spells cannot be
cast on characters under a certain level. In the past a caster could
get around this level restriction when casting a group version of a
spell by targeting a higher level group member, and the spell would
take effect on the whole group, regardless of their level. That
loophole has been closed. We're sorry if you have grown accustomed to
the system working this way, but those level restrictions are important
to the integrity of lower level gameplay.

That's the only patch message I've seen that explicitly mentions the restriction. This link contains a bunch of Enchanters discussing how each spell has a level restriction...but some of them aren't what you'd expect.
