Also, jobs have not been homogenized. Roles have. Jobs within a role have to be able to perform the same in certain circumstances or you could be in an instance set up for failure because a certain job isn't there.
Nah, jobs have been homogenized. To give an example, WAR has pretty much had its HP focused identity stripped away from it.
