The Daemons are one of the biggest examples of the OMGWTFLOLCOPTER!!111!!21! thing. They were just so different…and then people realized how they did and did not work, and their deficiencies.

Same for Nob Bikers. Used to be 'teh uber', then people realized it got countered by the same thing you'd want for killing vehicles, and/or a unit of Terminators tended to do just fine against them. (Or worse, Psyker Battle Squad).

The game changes. If army builds were static, we'd have chess and we'd lose the variety we like in this game.

Finally, thanks for #3. I've seen so many viewpoints say that “IT IS RONG TO MOVE TO TEH CODEX OF TEH WEEK!!1! and following up with 'my viewpoint XYZ is the true way.' Hey. This hobby's got a spectrum of players and a plethora of reasons for rolling with how they roll the game. Just accept it and move along. It's life, folks. As long as we're enjoying the hobby and not being exclusionary to other POVs, we're probably doing alright.
