This is mostly true, but I find it generally more useful as DPS filth to pick off ranged (or priority) mobs that the tank can't pull into the main group. This is really common in Wanderer's HM with the sophists, because there's no good places to LOS them most of the time. It's easier for me to spend a couple GCDs blowing up a sophist than have it whip around and lay into the healer because the tank is busy with the main trash pull.
