Just because some people think this doesn't make it true. Rogue by far is the least skill class. Monk would be next. A low skill player playing a wizard is the same results as a high skill player playing a rogue, just mindless dps. A high skill player on a wizard brings a lot more to the group than dps.
And for the next at least 2 years mage and wiz are god mode dps in raid bosses.

I think you're missing the context of my post. I don't disagree with your comment on what a high skill player on a wizard brings, but the thread is in relation to the easiest and simplest class to play. Your comment was outside the scope of this context.
Being a social game, I believe one of the most important criterion for 'easiest and simplest' would be 'meeting the expectations of your group mates', and I feel this barrier is even lower for wizards (occasional mana dumps) than it is for rogues (dpsing every mob, continuously paying attention to positioning and remembering to back stab, while being expected to have the zone knowledge to accomplish corpse recoveries).
Rather than being what a peak (or even mode) example of the class can achieve, we need to look at the lowest acceptable trough for performance is on each class.
