I get you, but we weren't discussing optimizing enmity. Even so, I'd say that optimizing enmity does not mean stacking as much enmity as possible, because that would be the same as saying optimizing healing is pumping as much healing as possible, all else be damned.

Optimizing would mean doing as much as is necessary to establish and maintain enmity while also dealing as much damage as possible. So much to the contrary of your statement, optimizing enmity is exactly what tanks focus on, because optimizing damage is exactly that. The only separate action from strictly dealing damage tanks need to do do for optimizing enmity is turning on tank stance.
