It's frustrating spending well over a month on a fight, doing enough damage to push phases, and being completely incapable of progressing because of a few individuals whom, while they're generally good people and friends of the whole group, are slower on the take. The only T6 clear we had was when two of them were out for a night and we pugged a couple of players.

The answer however isn't "get a better raid" or "kick those scrubnubs" because that's exactly what the blogger was talking about being the problem. Because my friends don't dance, and if they don't dance, then should they really not be friends of mine? I don't necessarily agree with that. I'm a patient person, but my patience with the instakill mechanics is wearing thin. I can handle them, but it feels like the majority cannot and over time that will be unhealthy for the state of the game. It'll be interesting to see how fight design progresses through the next year.
