Mail Gear for Shamans

Why does Blizzard not design mail armor with stats meant for Enhancement Shamans?

I've come across tons of Resto and Ele shami gear while questing, lvling, running instances, building rep, and running bgs. But there isn't really any mail gear for Enhancement. Its all hunter gear, with hunter stats.

Agility is nice... but I need Strength. Strength gives me more attack power. And about the only place I can find good purple mail gear with Strength, is if I roll LW as a profession.

It's stupid. I should not have to get enchants and gems just to get the stats I need.

I can wear leather... but I shouldn't have to wear less durable armor to get the stats I need.

I don't get it... hunters and shammans are the only 2 classes in the game who wear mail (excluding warriors and palli's, cuz why wear mail when you can wear plate?), so why is there next to no gear specifically for Enhancement Shamans?

Man, I don't know what instances you're running, but it seems like all I ever see is mail drops. Hahaha.

If you feel like we don't have enough itemization for any given class/spec, though, Suggestions Forum is the place to go!
