Its easy to see that most comps have.
A. Pally tank.
B. Disc/Shammy/MW’er heals.
C. Aug + Enhance.
Then finally D. A brez DPS (which is DK or Boomy)
With this comp the brez can’t be an engineering brez because it needs to be instant to brez the tank when they die. Seems to happen around 2-4 times during most 14/15 keys.
So that seems to be the main reason why many non-brez classes don’t get a chance at that last spot.
If this healing comp or the tank dying meta continues into next season I think the only solution is to give all healing classes brez baseline without engineering.
Then comps might invite other DPS specs in LFG.
You don’t need meta comps for 14 or 15s.

I sneak into groups as a feral druid sometimes. Also paladins can brez.
You don’t, but classes like mine can’t get a @#%ing invite unless I drastically out rank everyone in the group. It’s @#%$ing pathetic, and I’m getting really close to just pulling pin and quiting this stupid imbalanced BS.
Sick of seeing groups with 2-3 Shaman or Paladins. It’s just plain dumb to double up on any class. But here we are, because Blizzard class balance Devs have their head so far up their backsides it’s not funny.
So a lot of what makes the meta, meta, is the ability to deal with pretty well anything and everything in a dungeon. Be it various dispels, immunity, or anything to overall make the healer’s job easier. Prot Paladins do a lot of off healing when they can. Aug, well, plain and simple. This class is cancer to the game balance. Shaman, (enhance or Elley) both have dispels and a whole tool box to go with it.
Disc Priest, being the healer, also makes the Tank’s life easier having access to pain sup. Just in case the tank needs those “Oh S@#yt!” moments. The fact they bring PI is icing on the cake.
The last spot though, you’re right, usually an extra B-rez is good or whatever can bring the most dps/utility to the group. If a soothe is needed, a rogue or druid. It all comes down to the dungeon, as to what the best class would be to fill that last spot.
This really isn’t because of Bres, it’s because those specs are very good. You don’t see any Warlocks up there despite also having a a bres.

There’s at least 1 warlock up there. Pretty sure he has a 20.
