Just because abilities have the potential to be misused doesn't make them bad, or troll abilities, and labeling them as such really limits the creativity and tactical quality of the job system.
Shadewalker yes. Smokescreen and Troubador not as much. It's not about targeting another character, it's about being able to directly kill them.

Obviously with something like healing that pitfall is unavoidable, since mechanically the game can't force me to heal you. Creating unnecessary abilities that allow me to kill you whenever I feel like it is just obtuse, though.
