Pretty much this.

If not maintanking I could spam hate combo all day long and would grab aggro for sure. Even easier if I keep Defiance or Shield Oath up.
Or, I could deactivate Defiance or switch to Sword Oath and help debuffing the mob or cast SS on the MT or other important or weakened party members.

Now, if I grab aggro without Defiance or Shield Oath and without spamming hate combo or other hate generating abilities, then the other tank is bad.
