Cheating: act dishonestly or unfairly in order to gain an advantage, esp. in a game or examination.
This is not cheating. Stop calling it that. Everyone can do it, you don't need special access so it's fairly featured.
Is it right? Well, right & wrong don't make a difference. Those terms are so ambiguous it would be pointless to argue one side or the other. The better question to ask is "Do we want it?"
Simple as that. No need to discuss how it bugs you to have to change settings, how unfair life is, etc. A vote for yay or nay.
I prefer to keep that setting in place; though, since I rarely play in night-time servers it doesn't affect me much.
