Just curious if any thought has gone into disabling strafe run?

After a quick search there’s been no discussion on it. Strafe run is something I wish I didn’t know and learned by playing on p99. (For those who don’t know, it allows you to move in such a way that prohibits mobs from hitting you while you’re being chased)

I feel it’s too powerful of a movement exploit. Obviously removing it wouldn’t be popular with pullers and kiters. What do people think?
Classic. It also doesn't 100% prevent a mob from hitting you, as I've been hit by mobs while strafe running before. It just seems to significantly reduce the chance. If you wish you didn't know about it, nothing is stopping you from not utilizing the classic mechanic and dying on your run from a mob. Enjoy!
