So, Warrior do more DPS than Bards. Your argument of 3 tanks is not valid because Warriors are insane right now and they need to tune down Fell Cleave. I have friends from Odin, I know where you are coming from unfortunately. Endangering your raid by ignoring mechanics is a major weakness that nobody in progression wants. While Bane would be a DPS lost for the SMN if you don't get enough tick, needless to say dots are on the boss but you are damaging the adds and doing your job.

If this is what you think of progression you're free to do so. I would simply not pick you and discard you or anyone that thinks like you away picking that one guy that might do less damage than you but I know will respect the mechanics before his own benefits in progression. Farm content is a different story if you do crazy things like solo heal, solo tank 6 DPS. It's fair to assume ignoring adds on BLM won't matter in this scenario.
