Exploiting game mechanisms is by definition a bannable offense.

By definition where? Without an official statement from DE or a citation from the ToS this statement seems really empty.

Warframe is and has always been a very buggy game, and thus both tolerating bugs and taking advantage of them have always been a part of the experience. Take coptering for example, which was transparently not intended, and DE has said as much. It let you complete levels way faster than intended. Who got banned for coptering? Nobody. What about spin-to-win LoS exploits? Again, no bans, they just eventually fixed it so you couldn't do it.

Generally bans for "exploits" only occur in games for exploiting bugs that directly duplicate items (which rapidly disrupts the game economy) or to get items from the store for free, which considering how DE makes money is functionally stealing.

But unintended tricks that help players get through a level faster? Friend, that's the bread-and-butter of the Warframe experience. Nobody is going to get banned for that, because if they did, they'd have to ban most of the Warframe Partners, influencers, and hardcore players.
