You are correct, K, it is quite usual to see modern homeopaths prescribe on a diagnosis basis, and calling it revisionism, as Bach does, is quite appropriate. Viewed from the outside, as I do, it seems quite strange to see parts of the logical whole that is Hahnemannian homeopathy paired with modern diagnosis methods. One has to assume it is more a matter of convinience than logic that drives this change.
Whereas Hahnemann's system is logically consistent, diagnosis-based homeoathy lacks internal logic: By working with scientific diagnoses, they acknowledge cause-based disease theory, thereby abandoning the vital force principle, but then proceed to attempt to treat with remedies that are supposed to work through the vital force.
