off the top of my head, a good example of a mechanic that would be super easily cheesed was Lions in E12S, people already cheesed it with Heal LB 3 because parties messed it up all the time, the issue was the healer had to get lucky and live but a reraise would basically make it a standard strat.

And dmg checks were definitely met despite this.
Yes, I agree.

The difference I see, at least in more recent raids, is if you tank LB a mechanic the whole party can still get a major Damage Down if the mechanic isn't handled correctly anyway. With a Reraise+wipe+LB3 everyone loses gauge and a few GCDs but otherwise comes back up with no Weakness (except the Reraised healer) and no Damage Down (except the surviving tank), which could tip Reraise into OP territory.
