The thing is regardless if you can use archer abilities on your THM, are you going to? No. Everyone is going to cookie-cut their roles at the core. If you want to THM tank, you are going to use defender, emulate, raise shield, etc. If you try and THM tank without tanking abilities, you won't fly. The thing is, when someone chooses a job, they know the restrictions, they know what they gain and what they lose by playing that job, and they play it anyway because they want to play those pre-set roles. Nobody rolls into playing a WHM hoping to tank, and obviously from the overwhelming feedback by players, more people want more classic defined jobs.
