Paladins are singled out with Forbearance: using one ability locks us out of several others. Paladins are also singled out as the ONLY tanking class with no gap-closer.
I don't know if Druids and/or Death Knights are punitively singled out for anything like these. Please let me know if they are. One way or the other, there is no good reason to deny one class an ability that is absolutely needed, and is the only class to not be able to do a certain thing.
Warriors absolutely can not truly AoE tank. They single target on as many mobs as they can cycle through. TC and SW have cd's that make them far too situational.
Warriors do need a persistent application of threat. GC, you have implied that that would ensure that mobs always stick to the tank no matter what? That is a foolishly erroneous statement. Consecration and D&D will not, by themselves, hold threat against any real attacks. Paladins and DK's lose tertiary targets all the time if dps hits them.
