but can we really say that within the current system it is not acceptable for them to roll being as they were part of the group and were given a chance to roll by the system?

I'm not saying it is unacceptable for them to roll. I am saying it is unacceptable for loot to be equal priority for everyone including people who aren't playing that role. It rewards laziness and dumb luck. It doesn't reward a player for actually trying to play the role they want gear for.

Furthermore without being able to roll need I can't even be nice about gear unless someone alerts me in chat that they need it. When need was still around I could roll greed on something not for my role or for glam without taking away loot from someone who actually needs it for their current role. Now I can't. Now I have to potentially be the ***hole who took someone else's gear because we can only roll greed or pass.
