Disgruntled Party Member: "Being bad."
Me: "I understand, friend, but could you please give me a bit more information as to how to improve?"
Disgruntled Party Member: "By uninstalling."
Disgruntled Party member has left instance.

And...barring the frustration and sarcasm in my postings here? This was asking. It took this long to get what I was going after, which is a number from a presumably informed player, of which I could take, and validate as needed. Before that, it was 'omg look at fflogs lolz.' or 'who cares, it's not extreme/savage content.' or 'lolz iLevel doesn't matter anyway, just do your rotations.'
So...you're just assuming that those players who got on your case did so because of your tank DPS? Something doesn't add up. Again, a lot of players generally don't care about tank DPS like that.
