No, it just shows how some people can't see past a calculator. Personally, a job/composition could be bad but me and my friends would still play like that when it's fun. It is that simple. The only ones who say such and such isn't allowed are the ones who this game should not be designed after.

I'm part of a raid group and we look at numbers yet our mantra is everyone plays with what they are comfortable. Balance is important so every comp is viable. But it shouldn't be so important as to exclude literally everything else.
