So - crying 'bug exploitation' doesn't help the cause at all as long it's not clear if it concerns a real bug or a feature.

Which is why, at such junctures, the practical applications of labeling a behavior as "cheating" are important to examine.

Now, the practical purpose of all this is to determine two things:
(1 -- Multiplayer Aspect) Is this person someone I want to game with?
(2 -- Maintaining Gameplay Standards) If they have engaged in "shady practices," have they done something such that I discount any possible achievement they might make? This is also self-applicable : do I discount my own achievements with a character because I knowingly/unknowingly did some strange stuff?

For instance: Technically, "Zen Harmony" is a bug. However, I don't object to gaming with someone who uses "Zen," and I wouldn't discount the achievements of someone who used a "Zen" setup. Why? Because I think "Zen" is a fair trade-off that doesn't make the game less challenging. It may even make it more challenging because of the opportunity cost of using an item "of Balance" and "of Stability" (neither of which appear with particularly nice prefixes, unless you use Nightscape to obtain "Stability").
