Shortage of tanks a myth - thoughts?

[Zykor]

As far as tanking difficulty level, that depends on both the game and the content. Overall tanking tends to be fairly easygoing however.
-You dont have to focus on pushing dps.
-You dont have to focus on others healthbars.

Right, most content does not push tanks. Whereas, without echo and without full 130, when you fail to kill Bahamut by a few seconds, you'll wish the tank would be better at stance dancing. And Paladins should also be watching HPs, or more specifically, weakness. A stoneskin on someone with weakness could save their life during the megaflare mechanics. This will be double true as they get more raid abilities in xpac.

Though echo makes that all irrevelant in current content.
