Mythic+ DPS - How important is utility compared to damage in pugs?

So I’ve been reading that frost DK will be picked a lot more than Ret now because frost is tuned well. Obviously damage in this game goes up and down for each spec, but I always thought a class like Ret or Enhance is a safe bet because of the utility. Are grips and a battle rez plus good damage that good to edge it out over enhance and ret in terms of getting picked?

On that note, aren’t warriors almost never picked in pugs because they have the lowest amount of utility? I am wondering how much utility matters in the scheme of things vs just being the top DPS specs.

When running my own key, I always skip Ret paladins.

Warrior and DK’s always do awesome damage though so I don’t mind grabbing them.
