Also nobody's talks about the bonuses we lost for having stacks and not using them
Paladin didn't start off as the best tank in 2.0 it was the only functioning tank in 2.0. The 2.0 Warrior was incredibly flawed with a very narrow window of tanking viability that depended heavily on incoming damage versus the Warrior's damage output. The Warrior varied between overpowered in content it outgeared, effective in content it was geared for and squishy in content it was undergeared for.

The Warrior was heavily buffed so that its viability window was much larger starting in 2.1.
