Don’t want to believe they would? Then why change anything with that viewpoint.

Powercreep is only applicable if they never changed anything to accomodate the shift, when everyone has their version of a decent kit, suddenly it’s possible to more readily plan around that, rather than tear down a good tank just because. Besides just being sad, when will the nerfs end? Oh this class is doing good? Nerf every job until eventually the content has to be nerfed because every tank is godawful. Id rather not repeat Dark Souls 2 balance, thank you very much.
If we don’t nerf WAR and instead buff everyone else to WAR’s level we may as well just delete healers, you can argue amongst the other 3 if they are the right level of tank sustain but WAR is just comically overpowered in casual content, if they nerfed WAR to PLD currently and slightly nerfed PLD to GNB levels they would all be similar in terms of sustain, WAR for all shouldn’t be the goal here

The answer is also not buff everyone to WAR and then make healers into glorified “DPS made a mistake fixers”, tanks should be required to rely on healers
