because diablo 2 had it.

Notice when GGG makes up their own stats that were never in d2 (energy shield for instance) its actually something good.

Yup.

Another genetic defect of the "we are designing a game we want to play" mantra. 90' nostalgia much.

Anyway, I agree with OP and his idea of changing these trash mods into something interesting & useful. The mod pool would be still diluted enough, so that 99% of rares would end in the trashbin, like they do now...
