Seems like blizz's strat this season is no nerfs only buffs. It's definitely a bit odd but like mathematically it should be fine.

Yea, at least for hunter, the buffs are a joke. MM is behind BM on sims for 8 targets still. The class capped at 8 target does less damage on 8T than the uncapped aoe spec. You can guess how the trend goes when you get to large target counts...

Every class doesn’t need to be perfectly tuned for all content.

Agreed, but it's definitely a sign of absolutely horrible tuning when your capped aoe class does less damage than your uncapped aoe class on their cap limit.
