The pattern doesnt really fit monks since mail + ranged weapons would still have been the most logical choice for MoP if gear really mattered. Monks having 2 agi leather specs put them in a more saturated group. Str plate had 5 specs(dps, tank is separate), dps cloth had 7, and agi leather had 5. Int Plate, int mail, int leather, spirit cloth all have less specs than agi leather. If you look at rings/necks/trinkets there were 8 or 9 specs that shared those items in Cata, now its 10-11 which is more than any other type(9 for dps int, 5 for dps str, tanks(only trinkets for agi tanks) and heals share others). So they way they made monks put them into a pretty saturated gear situation. Its obvious they were added because the monk is associated with Pandaren and the exp was Pandaria.

IDK but to me a tinker class doesnt fit anything currently in the game. Its not mail, a contructed metal body would be more like plate. It wouldnt use int unless its magical but it seems mechanical. Agi doesnt make sense since machines arent agile. Maybe strength because it has to be strong to stay together and crush things. So if anything it would be plate with strength tank specs and dps specs and maybe a int healing spec with int=electricity, could be int dps too if its for shocking things.
I guess I just fit it into WoW gear but its plate, not mail.
