If tank DPS is so irrelevant it seems quite odd that both Warrior and Paladin got abilities that do absolutely nothing besides damage. The tank meta has been "as much survivability as you need, as much DPS as you can" for a long time now and this doesn't apply exclusively to Lucrezia and Elysium. If your static's DPS "can't even perform within 90% of the best players of their class" this makes tank DPS all the more important, not less.
