I dont understand the arguement over a tank vs a champion with tank items

So people yell at me (type in caps at me) when I call a champion like fizz or ekko that has built full tank items a tank. In my opinion if they are used as a frontline disruptive champion that is able to take some damage they are a tank. A bruiser falls under this catagory to me a trundle or garen will suck an entire teams focus onto them if they get even remotely close to an enemy carry so if the only damaging item they have is a black cleaver or titanic hydra what does it matter that Riot calls them a bruiser or diver. They are fullfilling the role of disrupting the enemy damage onto your tanky self instead of onto that precious kogmaw or vayne melting their entire team.

They don't have cc or the tools to be a tank. It's on the mechanical level, not based on items.
