Forgot to add - I still have absolutely 0 issues holding aggro on everything. I'm not going to collect hit or expertise on purpose unless I have said issues. As of right now the only expertise/hit I have is what came on gear that were upgrades for me. I see no point in gemming or purposefully gearing for it unless I actually need it to hold aggro.
Not sure why tanks say to go for hit outside of aggro issues, but I know expertise is so that you can avoid getting Parry-whomped by something using a special-big hit-parry-big-hit. Of course, the chances of that occuring are fairly minimal anyway. I think half the tank theory-crafting comes out of people trying to add avoid the inevitable reality that they are walking meat shields or healers looking to make their own lives easier.

Then again, I haven't delved too deeply in to HPS and healer longevity either.
