So I wanna be clear, I'm not insisting that Savage and speed kills are a 1:1 parallel to the game as a whole. What I meant is that the perception some classes get are heavily influenced by what is popular in Savage and above. Of course there will be non meta classes being played, savage clears and speed kills account for a very small portion of the community. However that small portion has a big say in how classes are developed and balanced, that is my point. A lot of the balance changes to classes come directly from their performance in savage as that is an easy number to track what classes are performing well and which ones arent. How they approach this information and make changes accordingly varies, from quick responses like with WAR, or slow changes like SAM/BLM OR worse off with a blind eye RIP MCH/WHM.
I'm not saying your concerns are invalid, merely that they are untested as we have no idea how the raiding community will tinker with the new playstyles.
