There are so many ways to cheese, you could aswell be cheesing, without knowing it.
Even knowing the fight in advance, were which enemie will stand, and how you can take them out without endangering yourself, can be quite a cheesy way.
As long as you don't see, how someone is playing, it can't be really said, if they are cheesing or not. So, saying: "It is totally easy, get gut or go back to classic" is pretty meaningless and gives even less value to a discussion than in other games.
