I can prove this assertion unequivocally incorrect using D3 as an example.
Diablo 3 does have free respecs. Needless to say, players do not have a god mode button in D3 that allow infinite damage to all enemies on the map. If so, we all would be clearing GR 150 in seconds.
Free respecs =/= god mode of infinite damage
False equivalencies are false. Hyperbole of a hyperbole is not persuasive.
