I don't think most would guess you to be a direct support professional or assume you're going for descessit sine prole either, tbf. A frat (ΔΣΠ) alum, maybe. And most other common expansions of the acronym refer to things, not people, as far as I recall. /shrug

Well, the damage is tuned --to the extent any hypercasual content is "tuned" at all-- around that passive tank mitigation. Which ultimately means that it's just a composition check by which to nerf to all non-tanks or tank-less parties to make it even less possible to skimp on a tank.

If you could always rotate defensives and/or stack external mit to just barely survive a tank buster as a non-tank and be healed instantly before an auto could finish you, that'd be game-breaking, after all. Tanks aren't *guffaw* healers -- mein gott.
