My Opinion on why WAR is the superior Tank.

Time to ignore a lot of fluff here.
..... So Tank DPS is important. End of Story. (Not Stone Skin, not Cure, Shield Swipe, and Attacks)

Tank DPS IS important, but in regards to PLDs ONLY there are some fights where your DPS in very important (In Levi X I switch to sword oath and rotate CDs during spumes to get them down faster), but in some fights (most often occuring in progression runs) damage mitigation may be much more valuable (a life-saving stoneskin prevents a DPS from eating dirt. A dead DPS is going to be a much greater DPS loss than me using Rage of Halone once). I recall stone-skin spamming the Bard while feeding slimes in T1 back when the bard had like 3600 hp.

If a Paladins SS is what saved his life, then your healers are the problem with clearing content, not your mitigation.
