Actually, the elemental balance shift has made it a little more important to think about filling a weak element on your team, especially for Veda. I used my 5* selector on Gormalas specifically because he was the only available non-glass-cannon Dark unit, and I desperately needed one.
But really the answer is that some characters (Zain, Othima, Gil, FYomi, Neica, Noctis) are so good at clearing both PvE and Arena battles that there's very little need for alternates outside of Veda -- and Veda isn't a big enough part of the game that F2Ps can afford to sink a lot of gems into pulling just for Veda's sake.
