To be fair, it doesn't really matter as long as they pull ahead and are immediately behind/nearby the tank, because the tank was going to AoE at any rate and the mobs are going to be in the same place rather than needing to chase halfway across the map for them. It's just getting a bit more DPS ahead and making the pull smoother.

The one instance I can find no fault with for pulling ahead, and even rewards pulling ahead of the tank, is if a sage is in the party, because they can pre-shield Eukrasian Diagnosis. Having the Eukrasian Diagnosis shield break on the tank means 1 extra Toxikon II stack to do more DPS. Having a shield break on each party member mean more 3-4 more Toxikon II stacks... so funnily enough there's a bit of party play cooperation in pulling first but running close enough to the tank that the aggro can immediately be retransferred over to the tank with a sage in your group.
