If you can just switch spec/gear/glyphs cheaply and on a whim, and be a completely optimal healer one minute and optimal tank the next, that detracts somewhat from personalizing your toon to be very good at particular things.

I guess that's contrary to the min-maxing philosophy, nevertheless I feel that personalization is an important aspect of mmo character development and ought to be protected to a certain extent.
