We were definitely recharging 10-dose SoW potions and Egg-shaped Pumice (after they got removed from vendor) back then on Rallos Zek. Check out the Egg Shaped/Crystallized Pumice thread in the Bug Forums - I posted a ton of evidence of people recharging Pumice via vendor at various dates on the timeline. I also was recharging root nets on my monk for instant pulling. People weren't really recharging items like Midnight Mallets but that's because people didn't really understand aggro mechanics - raid tanks didn't really use those items for such a purpose.
There isn't much logical reason for them to code it to work differently for some items and not for all items with charges to work the same. It's actually more work on the code side to make exceptions.
It was a bug. It was eventually removed. But not in the Classic timeline.
It was specifically removed from Red because it's more of an issue in PvP than it is in PvE and causing extra CSR.
