While I believe they mostly did a good job of balancing, they are only human and clearly made mistakes (and still do today), such as this one. Also the most prominent difference here is that... they were balancing Live, not P99. P99 doesn't have the same data as Live and we have no way of figuring out exactly what numerical values and formulas were set for everything on Live. Basically its a fuck ton harder to balance things on P99 than Live because so many values have to be guessed rather than already known.
Community discussion and debate has been causing changes in MMOs since they began, and that's not gonna stop today or tomorrow. Developing an MMO is a huge undertaking and devs have been relying on players to assist with balancing, changes, and feedback since the start, and Everquest was developed in this manner as well.

And that’s where you’re wrong. This is a museum (or a museum to the extent possible) not an mmo brah
