Specialization is good, because when everybody in the party is good at one narrow field we all get to take turns doing cool things. If you make a character that's good at everything, nobody else gets to do anything.

This as well. Because while a more diverse set of abilities would be cool, if you make it too diverse, everyone suddenly becomes a jack of all trades, master of many and that feels boring.

This is the premise behind Konosuba.

The party leader is a generalist adventurer and everyone else hyper specializes: max CON 0 DEX tank, EXPLOSION wizard, and cleric with a wisdom dump stat.
