You can only sheep one thing at a time; you can only sap one thing at a time. If it's a really bad pull or a group spawns on your head or a patrol comes wandering by at the wrong time or a combination of all those, your 5 man group may be fighting up to 10 mobs (maybe more in some of the higher areas that I haven't been in yet) with no chance to regroup in between. The more of those adds that you can take out of a fight for a short time, the better off your group will be. There are fewer area of effect attacks than in D2 so having more mobs on you at once is worse in WoW than it was in D2.

I'm not disputing that
However the word that describes that is sometimes
The word people have been using is never
It's partly pedantry, it's partly that people start with an exaggeration (you can never have too much crowd control) and use that as the premise for a build philosophy (you should spec for cc not damage)
