So unfortunate as it may be, what matters to end game players does matter to casual players and non raiders as well.

The meta honestly doesn't touch non-Savage content at all, in the slightest. I see tonnes of off-meta classes played in pretty much everything except Ex primals and, even then, nobody really cares much if your class is meta or not, as long as you clear it. On the rare occasions when I do see meta classes, very few of them show any awareness of what the "meta" thing to do is, nor do they execute it perfectly. About half of the few NIN players I see don't even use Trick Attack, let alone align it with any other debuff.

The very fact that WHM is still a popular class outside of Savage content shows how little the average player cares about following the meta.
