Your argument is flawed because you say both tanks take ALL hits. If a DK has a parry rate 8-10% higher than the pally (likely with the gear, rune, and passive ability), then out of X number of hits theres a large chance the DK will take LESS hits than the Paladin.
I'm not saying blizzard designed the class wrong, I'm just pointing out that DKs can be going along all fine and dandy and then BOOM they are almost dead. (High damage boss or multiple trash target tanking.) My paladin seems to have a much "smoother" damage take than what I have seen of DKs thanks to block mitigation. I was trying to point that out with an extreme example. Oh and for the above poster that provided a different combat set, you ignored the paladins dodge while conveniently adding it to the DK avoidance.
