Not from where I'm standing.

From what I'm hearing (personally) the opposite is true.

It's actually been encouraged.

And yes, this is from possibly some of the same "top MEs" to which you are referring.

Actually sometimes I may have (including an L3) four compressors working on the mix buss.
Sometimes I'm just passing a signal through them.
