Right - but since its in the game and possible (source engine has been around forever and bhopping is a thing) I am just trying to figure out what could be causing this. If they remove it then I obviously wouldn't do it.
All exploits are in the game, that is why they are called exploits. If it was not in the game then it would be called a cheat.
This is just one of the many rules in the TOS:

The OP himself calls it an exploit, so please stop telling people to not respond.

Err dude? CTRL+F didn't show the word 'exploit' anywhere in the OP. And you're telling it to the very person who wrote that post. Are you okay? Are you sure you're in the right thread?

Yeah, that was me basically telling you that you do not control who responds on a public forum.
Calls it a mechanic - which it is.

Correct, exploits can be a mechanic.

Actually the devs did publicly say heal hopping is not intended. https://www.dexerto.com/apex-legends/should-bunny-hopping-removed-apex-legends-respawn-respond-473391
The only time anyone bhops in apex. is to heal. Its heal hopping not bunny hopping. Titanfall universe already has fast movement. Its officially an exploit, but one that is not easy to stop cleanly.
At some point you have no choice but to rely on community to play honorably. For example facit tourney didn't allow camping respawn for kills. so heal hopping issue is what it is. Maybe nothing they can do about it without inhibiting other aspects of the game.
It’s called bunny hopping haha. And healing while bunny hopping. Never heard a single person call it heal hopping. All these people, including yourself, talking about whether or not we should be able to do it. That’s not the point of this conversation. It’s painfully obvious that those against the use of it... simply aren’t capable of doing it.
Im all for anything that increases the skill ceiling. This is one of them and until it’s removed (which I doubt it will be) you should get used to it.

I don't suppose Pathfinder's grapple was intended to be used the way it is. There's probably lots of ways players use game features in unintended ways. Wraith using her portal to send players off of cliffs is not intended. The devs must have know it would be used this way but that's not it's intended purpose.
Or in Battlefield, sticking explosives to jeeps, seat switching in helicopters.
It's only when players have a moan that the devs will 'fix' unintended gameplay. If nobody bothers about it or even notices then they might not fix it.

It is very simple to me, unintended gameplay is just that and needs fixing. The problem is when people know it is unintended and the do it anyhow, hence an exploit.
