As for Mr. Happy. I don't follow him, but from what I have seen he has a bad track record when it comes to his tank predictions. In his 3.x video he claimed paladin and dark knight we about the same in effectiveness, they weren't. In his analysis video when he demoed the game pre-release he claimed dark knight was set up to be the damage dealer of the tanks, looking at the past standings dark knight has always seemed to be behind, and the current standings warrior has that place over dark knight by 300. His 4.x tank video does hit on a lot of good points and might be the exception.
Not to defend him, as I don't follow streamers of any kind, but no one could predict the content as "Magical damage focused" and thus pushing the PLD out of the meta (or even out of any party hoping for a down).

Making two jobs on par and one focused magical damage, the other focused physical, is technically correct if your content is either balanced around both sources, of TB include physical and magical components each times.
