Why is Fire AOE uncapped?

So when Fire gets dumpstered in the next patch, how are you going to feel about having to switch to frost or arcane? Judging from this:

They’re probably going to balance based on perception rather than actually balance. So, get ready. I won’t be switching though.

It’s important that other specs are competitive in an RPG. Ideally, everyone can do their part just by playing what they want to play and playing it well. Sometimes tiny things like uncapped AOE get in the way of that because of perception. There is no reason only a small subset of specs gets to scale their damage with the amount of trash pulled. It only makes people think they have to play x to succeed in y.

Edit:
I also want to add that there is actually reason to balance based on perception rather than actually balance. When you have a population of people such as those that play WoW where the majority are appeased by introducing these ups and downs in class/spec performance, it makes a lot of sense to just have this garbage where some classes are the undisputed top every other patch cycle. It’s very stupid and entirely the fault of the majority’s ignorant perceptions and lack of caring for truth.
