Throwing chaff units to slow armies doesn't spontanously sound broken, but I understand sombres point. The ultimate mechanic IMO would be it there was a strength treshold to it. So to slow down a big army you would need a decent bunch of kamikaze chaff relative to that size.

If not at release, I thought the two eyes thing was fixed pretty early on. Maybe it just doesn't work when picking up friendly items.
I absolutely agree with you on the second point. Slowing down the army with chaff should not be considered an exploit but if there is ever a Dominions 4 the devs should consider changing the mechanics to work more like you two are suggesting.
