I suppose I simply disagree with you, you are using three group options here to justify the first. Yes, the aura works fine with casters, however, it does not work fine in a tank group. If you put the Sanctity Aura in the tank group, you are affecting one other person at best, the current tank. None of the healers in that group, or whoever ends up in the group with them will be directly affected by it.

If the paladin is relegated to a caster group, they lose windfury, this is simply not a valid option. While it may be acceptable to have the paladin not in the melee group if there is a need for it, saying its the exception that they should be there is just not true.

Exorcism, Judgment of Command, and Consecration all account for less than 10% of an Alliance Ret Pally's damage. This is insignificant, and if mana starved, they are the first abilities removed from their rotation. Their primary damage source is still their auto attack, followed by Crusader Strike and then their Seal damage. I am not arguing that they should have the spot over the 3rd rogue, as you list in one of your scenarios, however, putting in the feral druid seems a rather poor choice, considering the loss of totems on the druid and the poor DPS of the class overall.

I am not trying to be intentionally argumentative with you, however, being that this is listed as a Think Tank article, it is expected that the information would be non disputed facts, rather than gray areas, as they are intended to be used by people as a near gospel for theorycraft. I'll stop cluttering your thread now, if you want to continue to discuss it, I'll be checking my PMs.
