SE made Summoners and Scholars happy today.

The reason I thought it was intended is because they didn't hotfix it as soon as it was discovered (if it's not intended, it's a pretty big exploit... dying doesn't matter if the WHM could time the Medica II right). Everyone and their grandmother was using this 'glitch' for weeks/months and nothing was done about it.

They don't fix anything as soon as it's discovered

It took them quite a while to implement fixes for bahamut turn 5 after it had been known that there was a glitch and people even got in trouble for it.

Things take time to fix and different people are able to fix different things, this is why they do larger patches that fix a bunch of things at once, rather than fixing every individual thing as it comes up.

Didn't they temporarily close down turn 5 until they could fix it? They did the same thing with the Titan hard WHM tank exploit before they could come up with a fix in a matter of a few hours. That's at least addressing the problem...

But your original statement was "no way anyone could think it was intended." I thought it might have been intended because it didn't get fixed for a very, very long time... nor was it addressed in any official way. I don't know why some people nitpick just to nitpick. That wasn't even the original point of my thread.
