You should re-read what I wrote. Those specific "archetypes" Mellored suggested weren't worth more than a background, unless you think every firefighter, police constable, and lifeguard deserves a 20 level class. If so, keep the fire lit for "Alustriel Silverhand's Guide to Civil Service".BlahBlahBlah...
A fighter could have just as easily been a background with a feat too...
Why do we even need a rogue? All the rogue archetype gives us is are various thief type characters. Why can't a thief just be a background with a feat?
Why do we need a barbarian? Can't it just be a fighter with a background and a feat?
Your argument fails because it equally applies to many other classes and subclasses already in 5e.
