You try to kill it as fast as possible but it came down to efficiency at the end of most fights.
With the player running out of resources first losing their pet and dying.
Hopefully the Defiler will rear his bald and very classic head.

Nirgon, it's really simple... You cannot possibly survive Trucidation + 1-2 Touch of nights being directed on you while you kill a pet with non banishment of shadows spells. You can't kill a pet with damaging spells faster those taps can be cast.
On top of that, banishment of shadows does work on pets. Which negates the pet healing thing entirely.
So this supposed airtight evidence doesn't even make sense. Either your friends memory was wrong, or players of that era had no idea how to correctly fight the botb. Either way, it's hardly evidence.
Top that with the patch notes, and every other effect of the era sans res effects being dispellable, you aren't providing much of a case.
Additionally, I had a necro and I remember dispelling it. Necros had ridiculously low hp in that era and didn't like being buffless/without lich, so it probably wasn't the most commonly used group tactic.
