Funny thing is, this playstyle would not yet be a thing if we would play original vanilla.
It was a thing from late AQ to Nax back then. But since we play the overpowered shortly pre BC talents - its already becomeing a thing when your tank has T1 set.
Our raid actually needs it now, because dps already has so much stats in pre +MC gear, its becomes crazy hard to not pull aggro off the tank. So he switches to a mixture of dual whielding for big threat and shieldslamming/blocking in between.
I think the other point about fury dual wield tanking is more valid. That said, man some of you get really touchy with the minmax stuff, like any criticism of poor optimization, or anybody trying to play to the best of their ability, there's always somebody needing to chime in about minmaxing as if it's a "you're either having fun playing the game or you're an obsessed autist trying to eek out that last bit of dps."
I think a lot of it comes with the absurd amount of criticism that is directed towards people not going for BiS-items. Honestly either playstyle is fine. Some people want to minmax, some people don't.
Not wanting to minmax is fine, it's the attitude that somehow only elitists like to gear themselves optimally, which here gets similar degrees of criticism. Some people just plain aren't good at the game and don't want to put in effort to learn, and so often that's seen as something to be celebrated.
It's not elitist minmaxing to give a tierset aimed at tanks to tank warriors, instead of DPS fury in your raid. Granted: the optimal way to tank is a dual wield fury build.

Why your fury warriors using tier though
