I wouldn't call carrying items and stats into a New Game+ an exploit, exactly. Otherwise, wouldn't playing the game twice, where you know events before they happen, be a form of exploit, too? You're taking something even more valuable in that case - information, as opposed to items or stats. How about saving/reloading until you get lucky in a certain fight and win?

There ARE exploits related to exports. Find Familiar isn't supposed to grant a permanent HP bonus, but it stays if you export the character. Your character is modified with an Opcode visible in Shadowkeeper (along with the Hell Trials bonuses). By contrast, the stats granted by the tomes are truly permanent and not simply an "indefinite" enchantment.
