This whole post is confusing. You start out by saying that people really CAN play however they want to play. Then you immediately admit that you change your build when it can't overcome obstacles. So, it sounds like people CAN play however they want to play... as long as changing their build to match particular circumstances is how they want to play.
Don't get me wrong, I agree that people should be forced to change awful builds in order to overcome challenging content, but why all the hate on people who share / look up useful information about builds? It seems like that was the real focus of your thread, and I really don't understand what point you were trying to make.
Properly built and geared Nightblades are pretty good, why the tears bro? When you get V14, you will see any Class with any Build can pull off amazing DPS. You have to synch the right gear, with the right abilities, traits, etc.
Google is your friend!

Like I said, there never is a perfect build, there is no 5 abilities that you can put on a bar and be able to win every single fight ever. Everyone who plays PvP or PvE knows that they need to change their bars if they are sieging, defending, preparing to fight boss, etc.

Only problem is, when your unfortunate build, which happens to also be an "archetype build" (meaning present in most games since time immemorial and also being perfectly viable if not plainly good - hint: "warriors"), turns out to be a "clown", to put it mildly.

I wanted to play a duel axe or sword wielding heavy armor badass. I'm sorry OP, but try it and tell me how well you do in PvP. Tell me how your going to mitigate the spell damage. Tell me how your going to use DW skills while still having enough stamina to dodge stuff and roll away from Bats and AE's. Tell me how you expect a DK to have enough magicka to cast things since all your effort will be in having enough stamina at the same time.
Tell me those things and I will believe you. Tell me those things and I will be able to play the way "I" want. Until then. you shouldn't be calling anyone ignorant.Because currently that kind of build is NOT FEASIBLE.
Damage is increased by either Stamina or Magicka. Thus, to play optimally, you need to pick one as a "main" attribute for which all/most of your damaging attacks will use as a resource.
Oh, stop.
There is no such thing as a "Stamina Build" anyone who wants to limit their use of abilities to stubborn idiocy deserves to lose.
Lets meet in Cyrodil, I need some AP.

A "stamina build" isn't arbitrarily limiting itself to use solely weapon skills, and I don't think anyone actually does that. There are plenty of supporting magicka-based skills a stamina character can use. But they're still primarily a stamina character if using weapon attacks over class skills appeals to them.
The issue here is that many other functions (stealth, break free, dodge roll, sprint) also use stamina, which unfairly taxes one attribute over another. Furthermore, most weapon abilities/attacks are not as good as magicka abilities and attacks, which is something Zenimax themselves have stated.
