Its not really dumbing the game down. They are giving you 6 compelling choices vs 41 obvious ones. If you have 2 talents and one increases dps by 5% and one by 10% which do you pick? That is essentially what we have now.
Now choosing between a snare a root and a stun is a much better choice and will depend on fights and your raid composition. Even better for some DPS classes like take Hunter tier 5. Do you want a passive focus regen, a focus regen cooldown or a cooldown reset? Depends on the fight or your personal playstyle.
There are more choices that will not make or break your play but will matter.
If a choice matters you can screw it up, the only choices you cant screw up are ones that dont matter.
I can understand where the OP is coming from, its not fun to have no meaningful input in your character. Even if that input has to be a done a certain way in order to have a good character its still nicer to get to click a few buttons yourself so that you feel like your having some input rather than having the game do everything for you. The less often a game lets you make any decision the more it feels like you dont get any say. Getting to click a few buttons every level generally feels much more rewarding than clicking a button 6 times over 85 levels
