They aren't forcing balance. They've got imbalance - an imbalance that is going to persist over an 8-month period. They've got a gaping hole between Paladin and the other two tanks. Warrior has a guaranteed raid slot.

I play all three in Savage AS1-3 regularly; Paladin's mitigation is inconsequential, it's utilities are poorly integrated to the point of being useless by design, and the producer really believes that spot-fixing "TP issues" without addressing the key deficiencies with their design is acceptable. Paladin is worse categorically across the board in practical situations.
You have rambling responses of what could be or what will be or how they intended this or how content can change this or that and it's all WORTHLESS WORDS because it doesn't address the current situation or the current oversights and the persisting design flaws that created the situation - you fail to see that all tanks need to be relevant in both tanking slots regardless of content. They aren't. It doesn't matter how much you polish a turd it's still a turd.
