I think this is where there's a big difference between the strategy's that 10 & 25 man raids.
In 25 man raid you have enough DoT classes that a snobold will die quickly and you lose maybe 10-20s of 1 DPSer's time. So in a 25man raid that's 1/17 or ~6%, in 10man that's 1/5 or 20% of you DPS and that requires you have enough DoT classes in the raid to kill it quickly.
Our 10m raids tend to have at most 1 DoT class, Klaus. In 10man it may come down to who get's the snobold and making sure any "ramp up" DPS classes never leave Gormok. You probably could leave a snobold on melee DPS, but healers, ranged, tanks need them cleared.
If the snobolds could be hit by AoE, it'd be another story too, then anyone with a snobold could run into melee range and have it killed while DPS continued to burn Gormok down.
