    Were you attacking from the front when this happened?

    It's completely possible to slip too far forward and register a frontal attack against a boss mob in Coil and miss with <478 accuracy. You should only need 458 accuracy when attacking from the side and 435 when attacking from the rear. Since MNK has plenty of side-attack bonuses you should shoot for ~458.

    My life while tanking is an existential hell from which there is no escape.

    ^This, I've heard about this numerous times and heard about it from tanks. With close to 480 accuracy they still suffer from occasional misses, makes a lot of sense because tanks spends most of the time fighting the bosses from the front. Also most groups have to position themselves to fight Asclepius from the front a few seconds before the 2nd sets of Dive-Bombs. That could be the reason why most high accuracy misses happened during the Snakes phase.
