EXP loss when using Carrion Creepers

[beelzebub]

I've noticed today that in AE, when my Carrion Creepers on my plant/psi dom do damage, the amount of experience/inf goes down... Why is that and is that intended? It seems to be fonctioning like Seeds of Confusion - though I understand why the EXP loss exists for this power. To me, Carrion Creepers are pets, and thus shouldn't reduce the exp we gain. Otherwise, kinda discourages taking them and speccing for them.

Here's a video and snapshots as proof.
Proof 1 = normal values for all 3 levels of minions - 2,530 / 5,059 / 15,177
Proof 2/3 = after summoning carrion creepers

Video: In the first part you'll notice the values fluctuate. Then when CC expires, the values are standard again.

Here's my build - a note: while I have seeds of confusion, I never use it because of the exp loss... I only use it for the slots/set bonuses

Super weird... I tested outside of AE and it happens as well - I did some testing and there's some sort of interaction between PSI and Carrion Creepers that is causing the loss... I attacked mobs just with plant skills and then only with psi skills and have deduced this much
