Item recharging is an exploit of game mechanics

[Hasbinbad]

Like you said, it was the same way on live for years (still is?). Shrug. I think if they thought it was game breaking, they would have fixed it. Some things that were unintended they kept, some they didn't.

I think if individual things show themselves to be game breaking (hoop) then they should be changed. Other than that, leave it alone.

FD splitting, fear kiting, snare kiting, pet pulling (being able to automatically single pull with the level ...51? Shadowknight/Necromancer pet, 'fixed' in PoP), being able to illusion/sit through a door (if you do it right) and a ton of other things were said to be exploits and 'not intended', but most of them were never changed and became basic mechanics of the game.

it's no different than the DA idol raids in Sky many moons ago that were also nerfed.

And I hear that using them in The Hole is fixed now, too.

They were so small that they weren't game breaking. Just like a lot of the recharges. The hoop was, so it was nerfed.
