Actually, it would because half the engagement comes from optimization. If I'm arbitrarily forced to sit in tank stance, I'm basically losing damage for no discernible reason. Ironically, this makes it so the healers have even less to heal when normal mode is already mostly a joke. Put simply, it wouldn't change a thing. People such as myself wouldn't even look at normal mode for longer than we have to or wouldn't care regardless. Forcing tanks into their stance in a manner such as this screams laziness. It means the devs have no idea how to actually make tank stance engaging or fun but they'll force it on you anyway.
