Are pure DPS classes really just another form of hybrid in disguise?

Also, in response to this, in regards to "tanking/soaking" morchok

"Given what I've experienced in Cataclysm, I'd have to say that while pure DPS isn't identical to being a hybrid class, we've already been irrevocably changed."

There were plenty of encounters in wrath that required dps to not dps, but to take on a different aspect. Kiting the head on mimiron, being the ranged tank on blood princes, spellsteal/purging the demon dude in toc 25. This is raid design, not class design. I don't see anything more special about cataclysm in this regard versus any other expansion in wow's history, seems like you're just trying to make more of this than there is.
