Putting more DPS slots just makes more people play as DPS, since the tank role is either too hard or irrelevent (e.g. the tank on Anantaboga could be a trained monkey) depending on which game you're playing and nobody likes either of those two roles.
You contradict yourself.

It is not exponentially harder to find 3 dps rather than 2 so a 6 man party party modeled and 1 tank 1 healer is not even 25% harder to find people for. It just...isn't.
