They buffed DRK damage?!

I am also surprised by this thread.

We already have some savage stats. DRK is still lowest dps tank M2-M4S and least played.

The buffs were nowhere close enough.

Lowest in rDPS (i.e. not accounting for damage from others' raid buffs), but second highest in aDPS - DRK especially benefits raid buff heavy comps, while others will do better in one with fewer buffs, and that's kind of been the DRK's thing since the ShB rework. And the difference between top and bottom is ~200 DPS rn. Although things are likely to keep shifting as more data comes in, so we will see if this holds up in like two weeks.

You're right that DRK is the least played tank currently and we do really need gameplay adjustments, but numerically things are fine.

Its all about perception. DRK being at the bottom on DPS with lowest sustain and various other issues reinforces the idea that its the worst tank job.

This is why nobody plays BLM either - it also looks bad pick compared to alternatives and players have abandoned it while MCH still has some fans.
