I think it fits the lore the way they've set it up. The first quest after unlocking DRK establishes that they're less about protecting people and more about punishing the guilty (which protects people as a secondary effect). I get a Sailor Moon, "in the name of the moon, I shall punish you" vibe from it. The reason they're tanking the boss is because they want to be the first ones to dish out punishment.

Though I wish they were DPS instead of course.
