Your post sounds as if you've been carrying on a conversation with us for the past hour.
I suggest rewriting it so we can understand what you're asking.

This is a thread where i put my op about whom between protadins and dk's i consider better aoe tank.
Imo an aoe tank can compete another aoe tank on 3basic domains.
1:Health bar(simple and common)
2:Avoidance
3:Tps(or threat per mob in case we talk about an aoe tank)
Imo dk tanks tend to be better tanks (in aoe domain) than protadins due to the larger number of aoe abilities they have(compared to paladins ofc).
On the other hand,protadins have more stable aoe-tanking abilities and their spells can be more reliable.
Although a dk that knows how to use his tanking aoe abilities(that most of them are runed dependant or have a specific cd) can be more reliable than a protadin equally geared and skilled as him.
So if i had to vote between the 2 i would go for dk tanks(in aoe domain).
Waiting for your thoughts............
just lol. rather then waiting for our thoughts you should have put some more of yourself into it.
paladin has same avoidance as us
+ block which is OP on trash
health bar really doesn't matter on trash as long as you don't come with rediculously low hp (20k fe) (and let's not forget that after 3.2 paladins with exactly the same gear (not possible ofc, cfr weapon) would actually have more hp then us, unless your blood(which is the weakest aoe spec anyway))
ergo he takes less dmg => less healing and less chance of dieing
only thing that counts for tps is: not losing aggro, guess what neither a paladin nor a dk who knows his job loses aggro on aoe pulls => equal on threat
so threat is equal, paladin takes less dmg and is less likely to die. i'd say it isn't to hard to see who's best.

a paladin worth his salt will have a block set for trash or add tanking. He will completely annihilate any DK AoE tank. Oh, and they have an AoE taunt.
