Fair enough, there will always be leeches. And yes, no one will argue that there's not plenty of 'free exp' as you call it. While I doubt you will, I beseech you to examine the number of people actually doing it and reconsider your position. The problem I and others have with abyssea leeching is not that it's possible, but that it's so trivial to do. Unless you've got some linkshell full of summoners, it's not exactly easy to come across 4 of them.
