Well, there's the rub. That is just your opinion. You are making up a story on how you think mines should work, and are then applying it to the game. Since the two don't match up, you blame the game for being wrong and say that people who don't interpret mines the way you do are exploiting the game.

Instead, you should look at how mines work in the game, and, if you are in need of justifications for role-play or whatever, come up with your story based on that.

I like how mines work in relationship with Trade Treaties. I think it makes the game-world a more dangerous place, and makes the threats of a backstab more dramatic and exciting.
