When was the last time there was a raid wide silence that forced ranged into melee range? Every single tier there seems to be a fight(s) that punish melee, yet rarely are there fights that severely punish ranged. On top of that, there are often mechanics that require a ranged DPS to deal with, which indirectly punishes melee be limiting the number of raid spots.
