I'm not sure. It almost seems like a fallback to the D2C days where some people ran large MF in the RoF but a lot didn't. It may just end up going back to runs to get stuff to sell for gold for gambling since they're going to increase the odds of getting uniques and such (by how much, who knows). In the end, I'm not sure that it's all that much less mindless and repetative than running Meph and a few other uniques.
The other thing people will now start figuring out how to do is rush characters through to get those "first time" drops if they turn out to be decent. It's a throwback to the old imbue mules in a way. Sure, it might take a bit more work than imbue mules did since they'll need to level to get the nm and hell drops. I'm sure they'll figure out a way to do this pretty quickly, though.
For me, I'm not sure that they've really made Diablo any better with the huge MF change. Just.... different.
