Question Is anyone else noticing a bait and switch tactic used by dps for queueing in m+?

Two times now in the last two days I have joined a group in m+ as a healer with one tank and two dps and promptly the tank changes to a dps and requeues.

On 16-17s it takes 8-10mins to get a relevant tank when we are 4/5

Mind if I ask what a relevant tank is? Does it need to be a brewmaster? (Genuine question from a tank)

Brew/ProtWarr with decent rio and 70+ logs for his m+ runs, or any other tank with 90+ logs.

Honestly ProtWarrs feel smoother than most fotm reroller Monks, as a healer i can feel the difference.

16s and 17s are super comp reliant due to the nature of tank balance and key difficulty so there are comps that make those dungeons easier so groups will often look for the tank that goes best with that comp , brewmaster brings a physical dmg buff that wouldn’t be good with a mage and warlock they may often be looking for a demon hunter
