The skimpiness of these sets apply to all the roles. Not just tanks, so I wouldn't consider them 'tank specific' so much as I would look at them as being the 'tank version' of that particular set of gear. Shisui sets in particular are not practical for combat by any means, for any role. Sets like these are similar to lv1 glamour options, and serve to lessen SE's grip on glamour restrictions. But instead of players seeing these sets as a means to loosen restrictions, they see them as a slap in the face to the restrictions that remain in place.

Sorry to say this, but sets like Shisui I see as SE saying, "Hey, I know some of the stuff I impose is a drag, so here's a pony." and the spoiled child says, "Eff your pony, I want a theme park!"
