Double weaving two pet actions has always had consequences and issues since ARR. Yes, we expected there to be problems (and bugs) with weaving too many pet actions sequentially. While we didn't initially expect the EA trait to have R4 only be from EAs, from the E3 build we planned our rotation sheets with "0 rng R4s" in mind, that only EAs would give them. And from the E3 footage, we could expect this because only one EA was used to force a proc: EA1.

I went over the changes from E3 on my twitter, in The Balance and elsewhere, only to once again detail release changes. SE are fairly formulaic in what they do.

We have kept abreast with information and almost all was as we expected. The only true (negative) surprise that is mentioned nowhere be it in videos nor patch/ll notes is the fact that melee egis neither have "Attack" anymore and that has crippled their damage output.
