I really hate whenever I try to explain how some bad rules can be abused and immediatelly get someone say shit like "If this happens in your group, change it" as if that would solve the problem. And whenever it is not soemthing you witnessed personally, then it means it never happens and could never happen.

Oh yeah, not to defend it because it is OP as hell, but there's a lot more at the core of 5E that needs fixing, it just seems odd to single out a spell from a sourcebook most tables don't use anyways, given that it's setting-specific and was never compiled into later core books like Tasha's.

To me it just read more like MTG power creep making its way into an MTG setting. I don't know if that indicates that it was developed by a separate team entirely but the entire thing was definitely just a cash grab to leverage their other properties.
