Leveling dungeons are a different issue, it's just not as easy for tanks to get much of a lead in the enmity race at low levels when their toolkit is reduced so much, they are lacking enmity bonus stances and combos with big enmity multipliers.

At max level with all skills available, having item level parity does help.
