So none of the arguments for and or against it hold any real merrit honestly. The best argument would be if a job could reasonable fit the role, based on the current roles limitations. (Such as Healers only being allowed 1 DoT, 1 nuke, and 1 AoE nuke. Any more complexity to DPS wouldnt be acceptable under current healer design, which might change again next expansion)
