That's just not true. If it were, then why are we all not playing the optimal dps, tank, or healer jobs
Because any differences between jobs are not so great that you're boned for having a team of, let's say 2 DRKs, 2 WHMs, and 4 BRDs.

It is true that people will gravitate towards the best set up in regards to end game content. When I played PAYDAY 2, a game that brags about letting customize how you want your skills to be, none of that mattered when it came to Death Wish difficulty; everyone went for dodge based builds because those let you survive longer than using heavy armor. Playing with armor made you a liability and even if you could pull your own weight, no one wanted to take a risk because the difficulty level didn't allow any room for experimentation. That's what would happen in this game's raids; go with what the crowd wants you to be or get out.
