Somewhat confused here. Is farming gold in a high density mob area considered a exploit? Or has Blizzard just kind of shat down their leg again with this one?

I mean, you literally linked the article. One ban has already been overruled by the customer service, so it either means they went too far and accidently banned some legit players which you can assume will be undone in the next few days, or there indeed is some bot/exploit available and the players just don't want to admit it (or think it's creative use of game mechanics).
So I don't see what there is to discuss for us.
Sounds quite straight out in four scenarios they could be caught.
A: They did cheat (Botting or exploiting).
B: They were caught by the software for suspicious activity (aka, running the same dungeon too many times is one of them. You could have GMs mercilessly appear and ban you without question back in Vanilla, now it is software doing it until an investigation is done).
C: They had a 3rd party program installed, or certain add-ons, and the software picked up on it, even though it might not have been in use.
D: Players reporting them in the belief they are bots.

Kinda funny when random players are getting banned for actually just farming - but when echo's GM srcipe says "yeaah .. we actually bought gold for rm" - nothing happens.
Shows you how important the token sales really are - and where the priorities are.

My theory: Mage Farmers are mass reporting any paladin in Strat because Blizzard is lazy as fuck and just relies on the Right Click > Report
We're all newbs, some are just more newbier than others.
Just a burned out hardcore raider turned casual.
I'm tired. So very tired. Can I just lay my head on your lap and fall asleep?

This is not the place to discuss official bans and such, no one here can help you or verify your claims in any sense. If you need further assistance, engage with Blizzard's official support channels.
