Legendaries are spec specific for the most part, some are multispec. If you want a specific one for another spec you need to swap specs.
Sure it sucks but it can't be helped we can't have everything perfect.
Seeing as you have most of the legendaries, and it's roughly a week to two weeks of full content for another, why don't you switch to the loot spec you need, grind out the earlier raids, mythic 0s to 4ish (Lower level mythics, even titanforfed relics Ill assume will be useless for you), stock up on relinquished gear and go with your gut when to start using the relinquished gear tokens?

I doubt we'll get any more, but if they add a wave of new legendaries it might be a safe assumption your BLP will reset? I don't see them letting x amount of the player base with max legends grind out their BLP for months leading up to it, which would guarantee them getting a new one pretty quick
Haven't got any Legendaries since I maxed my mainspec.
Never remember to switch loot spec so I haven't gained any BLP towards OS loot either :/
When you have all (non-crafted) legendaries for one spec, the next legendary that drops for you will be for one of the other 2 (1) spec(s) randomly. This was introduced with 7.2.5.
When you have all (non-crafted) legendaries for all specs, Bad Luck Protection will not stack any more. I had that before 7.2.5 and did a LOT of legendary-awarding content after i had all and then once 7.2.5 dropped, it still took another week of doing all legendary-awarding content till I got the new one. Again, this is anecdotal evidence, so take it with a grain of salt.
This was a necro'd thread, but since its open again I want to post an update to things that other people were saying earlier in here (and is no longer true). If you are capped on all legendaries for a given spec, you will begin to receive legendaries for your offspecs. For example, if you are a holy paladin and have everything already, you might be healing a raid, get a nice holy trinket off the boss and a ret legendary at the same time. You do not need to change your loot spec anymore to continue getting legendaries.
However, if you want to target a specific offspec (and don't happen to be a DH), you will need to switch loot specs to whichever one you are farming legendaries on.
Good luck in your hunting.
Not switching to an off-spec of your choice I can confirm that when you get all legendaries of your current [main] spec it'll randomise for either off-specs still in "need" of legendaries....
I main a shadow priest, off-spec as holy... forgot to set loot type from Shadow to Holy... gotten a legendary TWICE for disc...

I have accumulated all the legendaries for my spec and left it on ret spec loot for a while and did crack open a holy legendary.
I have every legendary for fury and with loot spec left on fury I got the arms hands.
I got survival legendary (Nesingwary's Trapping Treads) with MM loot selected last week. (I have all MM and BM legendaries)
Easy, just run loot master and switch specs for bonus rolls.
I've read a few replies, and they're just flat out wrong. Not sure if people are misinformed or just making sh*t up, but they're all wrong.
I know several friends who have all of their legendaries for their respective main spec. After that, you can still leave it on your main spec, but then you will be awarded randomly a legendary from the other specs. IE. If you have all of the Frost DK legendaries, you will get blood or unholy legendaries randomly while still having your loot spec as Frost. You only need to change your loot spec if you have zero desire to have say a blood legendary, or unholy, etc.
I'm still looking for it, but there was a blue post in our discord that also explained this situation as well. Once I find it I will edit the post and link it.
You start getting random legendaries for your other specs.
