There was an edge version of Rails (this project has a frozen Rails at some point in the past) that had a bug where a namespaced route would send a POST that should go to MyController#create was instead going to a POST to MyController#index. The fix is to freeze to current Edge, or use alias_method.

"Any way to turn off a validation in a re-opened class?"

No way to do this. Best to refactor by pulling the validation out of the class and then mixing it in, or not, at a different level.
