No, it's not bad design and it's not unbalanced. It's diverse and it caters to different playstyles. You can't measure Tanks by DPS alone. I played WAR in Heavensward because I liked that Offensive, HP draining playstyle. My friend, who was a very nervous, Aggro and Defense oriented Tank would never touch WAR--but had a lot of fun playing Paladin.

If they want more people playing Tanks, they need to diversify them and make room for people who like different types of play to find something that works for them.

Every class needs strengths and weaknesses. Gives you more incentive to level all of them. If every class is just the same at everything, then what's the point?
