You seem to be in a pessimistic mood today. ;-)
If you look back at the units and themes that were changed from 2.08 onwards, the list of improvements is much longer than the list of nerfs.
And to my knowledge the only nerfs that fall into the "because we felt like it" Category are these ones:
* Freak Lord size 6 -> 5.
* Atlantian scout protection 4 -> 2.
* Witch doc, research 5 -> 3 and cost 90 -> 80.
If that's what you call a trend, its effect looks rather unsignificant.
