This right here sums it up. Most of the people I know who only tanked because they could play more like dps are the ones irritated. The ones that expect to spend more time in dps stance than not. They will be the ones that do not return or do it begrudgingly because they don't like dps queues.

SE has pretty straightforwardly shown us they expect the roles to do their primary function first and foremost imo. Healers got the same treatment. The player base will adapt eventually.
