    You have to explicitly destroy it. If you exile it, the effect will remain until another Hixus is played and you destroy it.

    You can get around it if you either kill your own creatures or replace them (put in a fourth different creature when you already have three on the board).  If it's a "new" creature, it doesn't enter the battlefield disabled.

    Yeah, it was designed at a time where you could not exile supports, so it wasn't seen as an issue.

    Oktagon has shown extreme reluctance to change anything Hibernium designed (which makes sense since everything they do end up changing breaks horribly), so they aren't redesigning Hixus and just leaving him as is.

    It definitely should trigger on leaving the battlefield instead of when destroyed, though.

    But it's still not intended I think. 

    It's/was the same for other critical support like the Lich mastery.

    It's always hard to get rid of a support that's not exists anymore. 

    But it is just one small piece of the bug cake, that lies on the board.

    There are also cards that enable your creatures.

    Yeah horribly broken, but the pile of fixes needed before they get to hixus is probably why it is still broken.

    Ehh... In their defense, the card quite literally does what it says. This is saying something, because the "Puzzle" in MTGPQ is usually trying to figure out what the card actually does in comparison to what it says it should do.
