Depends on implementation I think. If they pull off classic spirit, locks will be able to tank but will blow ass in some major way, kinda like how druid healers can't even rez, paladin tanks cant taunt and have to drink all the time, etc.
But that was always something that felt uniquely Furor + Tigole channeling their Everquest days and I don't know if I have faith modern Blizzard will be able to emulate that without truly understanding what drives people to classic.
One of the fun things about classic is how sloppy and imbalanced it is. So the fact that they're going this direction is maybe promising. Retail being the era of bland homogenization. The game with those changes would still need to feel classic and that'd be difficult to pull off.
