Is this stuff about every class going from 40 talents to less then 10 true or false?

To say every class is going from 40 abilities to 10 is a gross exaggeration. Most classes may have lost ~25% from what I can tell, plus rotations simplified. Also a decent amount of CC removed as has already been said, but by no means most.

[Rivin]

Arms warriors only have 3 rotational abilities not counting any gained from talents, which are generally on medium length cooldowns.

It's pretty sad honestly, but some specs got hit harder than others.

Mortal Strike, Colossus Smash, Whirlwind, Execute, Rend, Slam (talented, but no cooldown). That's 5-6 primary abilities, plus another for multi-target situations (Sweeping Strikes).
