Yoshi also said the reason they added Gunbreaker was to have another option to WAR for OT since PLD and DRK both are used primarily as MT.

DRK rework
Balance the tanks so they won't fail at their own designated role
Balance the tanks so they're competitive with the other tank in their designated role
Balance the tanks to they can perform adequately at the role they weren't designated for in case of a pug

That seems like a lot of balancing to do for tanks

LOL right... imagine your class is designed to be the useless DPS.

Yeah when they will fail in 5.0, all their balancing ressources will goes their.
So, it's easy to imagine they will skip healers for the first half of the expansion, then fail to rectify balance of healer for the other half.
And for finish, give us the same excuse for no new healers in 6.0.
