I refuse to lead my raid group with that method on principle. >_< Luckily we downed t2 well before it became a "thing", so there's not really any pressure to try it, because why mess with it when we already have a strat that works (that doesn't cheapen the fight)?
I'll point synaesthetic to this thread for BLM-specific tips; I'm sure she can help you out muchly, OP.
The game developers have stated that they don't feel this is a cheat and that infact it is a valid way to beat turn two. As well as they have no intention of changing it. It is merely a different mechanic that someone discovered another way to complete the fight.
