Been preaching this for ages. The only damage a tank needs is vs Minions as long as they have the survivability and CC to compensate for the lack of damage. Being able to assassinate squishies is not on my priority list when I play a tank. I just want to be able to reasonably survive lane on a tank champion. I don't mind if the tank champions lose every matchup. Just REASONABLY survive.
The girl and the left guy are right tho
Thing is, when a tank has no damage they are irrelevant.
Because they can only have so much CC without it becoming OP in its own right, and making them super tanky but lacking CC or damage to make people pay attention to them?
Might as well not exist.
So they get a balance of CC and damage......but this means they gotta be killable, because it would yet again be OP otherwise.
Utility from a tank? That is basically CC or stat boosters, or something like 
, all these ended up impossible to balance in high levels of play.
Give them some manner of ability to buff their allies? A impactful one would just end up too strong right away.....you dont believe me?
Ask Sona how many nerfs a champion can take in a row and still be viable because a high uptime of a few minor buffs causes the affected targets to be too strong......
Oh god... you probably offended the riot gods. Watch now as you go an losing streak with top and support trolls.

I mean, in all fairness buffing utility and playmaking would be utterly stupid, given thats literally the reason ornn got nerfed in the first place.
