If it is true, then I will be closing my second account, which exists only to play 2 mages together. I will also not be playing my main (mage) anymore. A main feature of the mage repertoire is the ability to deal damage to huge groups and take them down solo... to reduce or take this away is pretty terrible, considering that the majority of this kind of activity takes place in a group setting (e.g. scholo, strat, ZG, etc. etc.)
I cannot see how this feature of the mage could be considered unfair, particularly because there are so few places where aoe'ing gives more benefit per hour than individual killing... and even then, it takes considerable skill to be consistently successful and not die.
