I don't think the design intends that monsters continue to be used, but in larger number. The design ALLOWS it, which is different.So...
We're stuck with monsters that barely change, but getting none of the alleged benefits of reusing monsters in large numbers as the design intended?
Edit: I also think that if you are doing that just so fireball can work, that just proves that fireball doesn't work right.
