The ability for wizards to travel instantaneous has always been a part of the genre I have seen it many books I have read since I started reading fantasy when I was sixteen. I have been playing since the 70s and I have never seen it what you are describing where every single time teleport is used to get around all those things. It is a very easy counter use a teleport spell that has a risk involved these things were not a huge issue back in the days of 1 and 2E I didn't start hearing about it until  3E and players figuring out if they combine this and this and this they are almost unstoppable. It is the same as multiclassing on the face of it you sacrificed some power to get other things and have your character concept well in the hands of powergamers some multiclass builds are over powered. The answers for some is to ban multiclassing. My answer is to say look this concept is over powered you need to change it. Not everyone wants to play LOTR or Conan maybe I want teleport and flying airships in my DnD.There seems to be a lot of I don't like this in my game so I don't want it in the game at all.I really hope the 5E has teleport in it as option  I hope it has dials as well to allow the DM the choice on how to use it in their game.</blockquote>
