It's because Bards used to swarm kite or some shit like hell with the actual snare and runspeeds.
Yet they still do it!!! So why it was changed is really beyond anyone's comprehension, because it's a fucking retarded change to "prevent" one class from doing something they can still do, while hindering every other class that relied on a CLASSIC mechanic.
+1 guys, bravo.

No, things were changed because they are classic. Bards were made to be able to swarm kite last patch, and they've been able to aoe kite for a while. If the devs had a problem with this they wouldn't have nerfed every other class to fix it, that's silly. Moreover, they would have probably fixed Bards once it was made very clear that they can still aoe kite.

Mobs on P99 are significantly faster than mobs were in Classic. It is known.
Add to that the gigantic player hitboxes from the rear, tiny mob hitboxes from the rear, mobs casting SoW on other mobs in dungeons (they only ever cast it on themselves if they could), and other strange mechanics and the complaints roll in.

Faster when fleeing or when running? It's been said numerous times that mobs on eqmac flee at roughly the same speed as mobs here. Regular runspeed is accurate too, you can strafe run or run/jump to get away from any non-sowed mob but running in a straight line will get you killed just like in classic. I haven't noticed any problems with hitboxes so they can't be that bad. As for mobs not casting SoW on other mobs, you should look for evidence on that. I tried to find evidence in either direction on the everlore archives but I feel stupider after reading most of the comments on there.
