I seriously don't get some of this (Destiny)

That poses an interesting question: Is there no point that the intended design of an encounter should be enforced? Surely, you believe there's some line where players stop being clever and start being cheaters?

That line is crossed when:

1. Players manipulate the game data / memory / network
2. Players enter a cheat code

Other than that it's not cheating.

Fair enough. I do think that game designers have some amount of legitimate say in how their game should be played, though. Fixing an issue where players have found a way to position themselves to effectively bypass an encounter, for instance, falls into that category for me.
