Default Stacking bracelets for a eath bless

Ok, so I'm doing some test games for strategies to be used in a MP game I've just joined. I noticed LA Gath's Kohen Gadols have three misc slots and I get to wondering how best to leverage that. I heard that an earth bless stacks on bracelets of protection in addition to normal armor so I figure lets try that and see how it goes. Boy does it!

Basic protection: 2
+2 for earth magic
15 protection for fire plate
3 bracelets of protection +2 (their normal bonus does not stack)

For an unbuffed protection of 23.
Lay down the earth blessing....protection 37!
Legions of steel put me to 40....not much point in even casting invulnerability...

So then I decide I can't in good consciousness use this. But the other reason I had been thinking about it is the quite awesome Hashmal has no armor slot and I thought it would be very nice to leverage an earth bless for them to get some armor through the bracelet.

So I was wondering, what is peoples impression of what constitutes a gratuitous exploit that should be avoided in friendly games?
