It's not really any stronger than the other tanks mitigation tools on tank busters (120k damage tank buster would be mitigated about 24k by sheltron while TBN gives about 29k shield). It has a shorter recast, but what good is that when you can't actually use it in that time?

You can say it's not a problem that TBN is less readily available than the other tanks mitigation, but why should it not be as readily available when it offers no decent advantages for it?
What you fail to understand here is the damage formula, buffs stack multiplicatively, so using cds on top of your base 20% mitigation from the trait has diminishing returns, whereas tbn has no diminishing returns as it gives an overshield not flat mitigation, making it better
