Then new players can learn what that is and well.. yes they will most likely run away from the group; but people in the alliance raid will be telling them that is a STACK marker. Thus teaching the adorable sprouts how to play the game. I think that is wonderful, and they should adjust that with older content.
It's really funny when nobody is new and you're still running after people like that "Why are you running" meme trying to stack with them so they don't die. I've explained it in alliance chat many times when helping out sprouts and there's always a vet that pipes up "I didn't know that!" It's because nobody explained it before and it's an obtuse icon that like you said wasn't used later.
