As I said...I like D&D to be a game where each class is distinctive and the boundaries are not so blurred as you suggest.
Fair enough if that is what you want or like...it isn't my preference.
I have my lovely Runequest 6th Edition and plenty of other games if I want to play in a more skill based classless...be anything, do anything without restriction type of game. I think other games do that sort of roleplaying better than Dungeons & Dragons ever has (or probably ever will) but that is exactly why I want D&D to stay fairly (not totally) restrictive and prescriptive in character career/background choices.
For me one of D&D's greatest strengths, not weaknesses.
Each to their own though...I am not trying to tell you what to enjoy.
