I dont really need your imagination of how it could be. Or what in your opinion must be "melee" or "ranged".
For example its not obvious that desecr damage is phys (however it game it looks like fire).
Its a game with its mechanics. I want to reveal it.
Then why does desecration, which looks like fire get reduced by phys resistence, it's "blatantly obvious" that it's fire.... The problem everyone is not seeing is he wants PROOF which nobody is giving him. He may be wrong but you guys aren't proving anything cause you're just spouting off what should or shouldn't be the case in a game you didn't have any design input for.
Look at the recent magic find people believed it just helped you get magic/rare/legendary, but blizz changed their guide to say it also helps get more affixes on the items.... NOBODY knew that, if you said it helped get you 6 affix items people would have called you a noob and that's not how it works.
Why can't you test it out? Find gear with the same stats (or similar values) of AR, STR, INT, and VIT, make sure one piece has melee reduction, range, AoE and no reduction. Swap the gear and see if the any drastic changes in the damage you are taking. Honestly seems like a small thing to prove, I doubt you will find anybody who has actively tested this, so you might have to do it yourself. Reduction of elite damage is probably what you would want to aim for anyways.

Maybe they don't have the money/gear to do so and was hoping someone on here may have some pieces laying around and they could check it for him, being a community of d3 players (or haters it seems in more recent cases lol)

Some of those effects may not be classed as "Range" and may get reduced by the "reduce melee damage taken"
Can someone test it?
