But why do they refer to it like it's some kind of exploit... or bug... or something that shouldn't be happening?
Because it is either an exploit or bugs in 99% of other games.
People in EvE don't see it that way because EvE isn't like the other games (this is a game that crime is acceptable, something that MMOs don't, as it's not acceptable in real life).
Play more games and see what's acceptable in them across genres to get a real answer to your question (not asking a control group removed from conventions in gaming -- as crime and it's acceptance isn't the norm in games).
And it's that mentality of a criminal that can't see past his behaviors to give an unbiased answer anyway. If any does exist it'll be dripping with a whopping dose of sarcasm and ball stretching for tears.

Every MMO.
And don't pull that gimmick that EvE is a sandbox either as an excuse.
If it's not designed by the devs as a mechanic, but players discovered it and used it to their advantage, it is an exploit.
Can do the roach dance. Twist words. Troll. It doesn't change the definition.
It's called, standards. Any genre can't exist without them, or it wouldn't exist as a genre.

No it isn't.
No game is a special snowflake. Sandbox doesn't mean a game is totally removed by the standards of gaming.
That you're defending whatever shows the convention in a nutshell (if EvE was truly totally different, you'd careless).
