The real problem is that "The exception proves the rule" is just
a poor translation of the original expression.
Assuming sense 1, the Latin expression *should* have been translated
as something like "The exception proves the existence of the rule".
I speculate that when the English phrase "The exception proves the
rule" was first popular, it was used mostly by educated people who
knew Latin, and understood the actual meaning. Since then, the
phrase spread to people who don't have the background to understand
its original meaning. As the English language evolved, the wording
remained static.
Assuming sense 2 (which IMHO is an after-the-fact rationalization,
perhaps invented by someone who knew that the saying doesn't make
sense but didn't know the background), it's again a case of the
wording remaining static while the language changed. The meaning of
"prove" as "test" remains mostly in the phrase "proving ground".
Sense 3, of course, is simply nonsense, sometimes accepted on
the basis that such a widely known saying *must* make sense.
(That's not entirely invalid reasoning; it probably wouldn't have
become a popular expression if it made no sense at all. The error
is in failing to understand *how* it makes sense.)
We have a similar situation with the phrase "begging the question",
which really means assuming the conclusion of an argument, but is
often used to mean *raising* a question. It's a mistranslation of
the Latin phrase "petitio principii", "assuming the initial point".
The Wikipedia article on "Begging the question" explains the history.
That's not as bad, though, since raising a question actually
makes sense.
