Yes it is. It is ok though, because so is nuking water instead of fire on tiamat, because it is less likely to resist. Pinning exploits poor pathings AI, and nuking water on tiamat exploits his weakness to water. The confusion here is that people associate the word "exploit" with something bad. In fact exploiting something is more often than not, a good thing.
