    The only party that could possibly see longer gather time is the last one if the DPS population gets exhausted, which I'm pretty sure isn't going to happen even with a 4:1:1 ratio.
    And my argument is that a large influence on how many people switch from dps to tanks/heals is based on scarcity of tanks/heals.

    This is always a problem in every game, the only solution is to tank/heal yourself or get a friend to tank/heal.

    Edit: I'm also assuming you're putting together a group yourself. I'll concede that queue times would most likely drop for dps if there were more slots per tank/healer in an auto-filled group.
