Assisting the tank seems to be the expected thing to do in groups. Why is this? Back when I played during the classic era there was the tank and there was the main assist(MA). The MA picked the targets and everyone assisted them. That way the tank was free to switch targets as needed to manage aggro. Does anyone do this anymore?

I mean, if CC is doing their job then tank shouldn’t need to switch targets. But if there is a reason to switch targets then it makes sense for a tank to also be MA so that everyone can quickly swap targets and CC can lock down the old target.
Having the MA and tank be different characters opens up too many possibilities for miscommunication I think.
