No, it isn't.

I have -never- got the ideal behind this. There is no problem whatsoever with skipping trash mobs if it is possible.

From common sense, they changed it because people were skipping these "trash mobs" meaning they were not playing the game the way it was intended, meaning it is somewhat like a form of cheating.

1. act dishonestly or unfairly in order to gain an advantage, esp. in a game or examination
2. avoid (something undesirable) by luck or skill.
Synonyms for cheating: avoid, escape, evade, elude

So yes, it is a form of cheating by avoiding mobs that were never meant to be avoided.

So every time I avoid a mob in some random high-level zone I'm cheating? Those mobs are designed to attack on sight, and here I go deftly evading them to save some time on the run to my destination of choice. I'm a cheater and I never knew!

I was pointing out a key flaw in her post. Never did I say she or you were a cheater, but people like to make assumptions. *Shrugs*
