Agreed, but I'd certainly rather see the tuning thread used to discuss the finer points of what is generally accepted as being "well-tuned" vs. a bunch of anecdotal jabber about whether or not guild X was able to defeat Brutallus.
The latter can go here.
There's certainly something to be said for constructing an 'optimal' raid setup - once you get past the absolute basics (# of tanks, # of healers), you can get into the details that have differentiated pre- and post-enrage kills (# of Shadow Priests, what synergies/debuffs were or weren't present, etc.).
I would imagine that someone with a bigger brain (or a better spreadsheet!) than I have could concoct a theoretical 'ideal' group template.
