I don't really care if this is a zero sum type deal. If it's called a tank it should have the ability to actually tank. I don't care if it has 10% more mitigation or 20% more like it used to have. It should have more mitigation to account for being a tank.

Right now tank companions are far and away the worst companions in the game. Medium armor players tank better than they do. I'm clearing heroic flashpoints right now with a sentinel tanking and the sentinel has higher mitigation than my tank companions that are wearing full epic tank sets.
You're still stuck in the circular logic that tank companions are replacements for tank players (in heroics). They tank just fine in pretty much every other scenario.
