Blizzard isn't here to hold your hand to follow their ToS, it's up to you to do that, and if you're unsure something is an exploit, then just don't do it.
The one's with a bit of a grey area are a little different, but there's no grey here, there's no way streamers, people who play this game as a literal job, didn't know this was an exploit that would result in a ban, yet they still spread it around to all their followers and likely got a lot of people banned who otherwise wouldn't because they were doing it and making it seem like it was OK. This is pretty scummy to me, they know the position they're in and the consequences of their actions. They're community leaders, some with 10s of thousands of followers, they shouldn't advocate cheating, regardless of how much leveling "means" in the current game. Preach is likely just trying to save face, if he really cared he wouldn't have used it himself, and would have actively tried to discourage others from doing it. And quite frankly, even if he did keep saying "Hey don't do this", well, actions speak louder than words, so when he says don't do it but turns around and does it himself, not only is he a hypocrite but he sets a terrible example, and people like that shouldn't be in influential positions.
