You don't tell your hunters "Okay, you go marksmanship, and the rest of you go survival". Bit of a double standard here, I know, since DPS classes just play the "best" spec they have, which is the same with holy vs. disc (as disc is the "best" spec), but it's an entirely feasible scenario to have 6 balanced healers, and somewhat less feasible to have ~20 balanced DPS specs.
