Unchained. Seriously, why are we not abusing this skill?

Not sure. Everyone just always tells me it's "JP Strats" - and friends I have who have come to my server from the JP data center say the same thing. They're sometimes a bit confused as to why we make the DRK/PLD just pull straight up instead of having the WAR do unchained to pull.

I really just don't understand how the entirety of the NA/EU playerbase could not come up with this level of play and make it the standard. One look at this skill, and the gears in one's head should be turning.

I don't really like generalizing too much but it's almost clear that as Spooky said initially, the general populace of the NA/EU WARs are post 3.0 Deliverance Hype Train that only have focus on their own personal DPS. A selfish mindset that is usually akin to a western player as some would claim. I don't believe in something so fallacious as that being a western player myself but it's hard to deny it if something as simple as "help out PLD/DRK at very little personal cost" is so alien to the western servers.

I don't think you can really put all the blame on the warriors. Whenever I get random tanks, or even some in my fc who queue with me, they'll put on shield oath or grit regardless of whether I have defiance or deliverance on. Besides, a lot of the tanks I see stack parry to high heaven and refuse to leave tank stance claiming, "I'm a tank, it's not my job to do damage." And then the others just try to dps with little regard to the other 7 people in the party.
