I was expecting a more detailed post than just a sentence or two which only provides vague suggestions and little or no information on how mentors are actually "abusing" it in your opinion.

A lot of mentors answer the questions of sprouts and returners in the novice network, help them queue into dungeons faster and things like that. I've met plenty of sprouts who love the novice network.

There's no reason novices should have to be invited.

There's no reason mentors and novices should be placed in it automatically if they're not interested in participating.
If it was not exclusive it would have thousands of people in it, which would make it more chaotic than it already can be. Novices used to be invited automatically, but it invited bots so it was changed to require mentors to invite them. Mentors are not placed in it automatically and sprouts are prompted and can decline the invite.

There isn't going to be a world where everyone agrees and everyone has the same opinion.
