That isn't to say tanks don't have a slew of other problems, such as still having jacked up accessory scaling and tank stance still being a thing for some reason, but they're hardly out of whack any more. Healers on the other hand are the complete opposite, where AST is pretty much just WHM but better in every conceivable way that matters.

"Can clear content" isn't a sterling endorsement of job design, and it should never be used to justify balance.
Yes balanced dmg wise isn’t balanced at all. War and pld are to strong with group utility and drk rots in a corner with his 20 % shield that mitigates less then Intervention from pld. Atleast in theory if you can stand still whm beats astro in dmg. I would understand that if drk would deal more dmg then both of them. But talking about balanced tanks when drk has not even the half of war and pld you would think it’s obviously not good.
