I'm not convinced this makes the idea of teleporting as an exploration aid worse so much as different. I'll explain:
I don't see us running around suddenly flagging a bunch of deathtrap rooms so you can teleport in but not teleport or recall out. I can think of one or two of those that basically already existed, i.e., you'd teleport in and die instantly, so no teleporting/recalling out. I don't really see us making more.
So what you've got, more realistically, is this:
1) You can teleport into some areas you could never teleport into before. I mean, okay, you might be semi-stuck there on arrival -- but if you're teleporting around to learn new places and explore, this isn't necessarily something you care about.
2) You can teleport out of some areas that you could never teleport/word/gate/tesseract out of before. This gives you an exploration/escape possibility you didn't have before.
3) Yes, your risk in teleporting has increased... but that risk isn't necessarily one of death. In a lot of cases, especially for higher level characters, it's more one of, you risk teleporting into a place you have to walk out of the hard way before you teleport again. If you're teleporting to mess around and explore or teleporting because you're in serious danger of dying if you don't evacuate your area immediately, this is not a big deal. If you're teleporting because it used to be faster than walking, now maybe it isn't. It's more of a gamble.
