If that is true, why do you need to specify both color temperature and tint when adjusting white balance in photography?

I think the answer is that it's not entirely the truth.  Tungsten filaments act like black body radiators, and there is a specific spectrum associated with it at a given temperature.  LEDs are not black body radiators and have weird peaks at different frequencies.
