Very silly change.

Either the above mentioned GM is going to retract his/her statement as being uninformed or EQ2 is going to lose a massive amount of subscriptions.
% wise I'd guess EQ and EQ2 are the most boxed mmo's out there. Of course more people box WoW but if you take it from an overall % of players, EQ2 has way too much to lose on enforcing this policy. On top of that coming from a game that allows you to macro all your abilities into 1 button if you wanted to and just spam it.
