He didnt say warriors are awesome because of taunt
He said taunt is "much needed" (after declaring snap aggro to be worthless) and his other reasoning for warriors being awesome was disciplines. Taunt is very bad against high level targets and disciplines don't exist until the 50's.

In ur first paragraph u seem to concede that you can kill tougher mobs with warrior, so I don't know how you think that wouldnt translate to higher kill rate and efficiency.
Both of these statements are incorrect. Trying to kill tougher things explicitly creates a lower kill rate, as it takes more time to kill them, and EQ's exp system does not provide a commensurate reward for the effort (not after the very early levels, that is). And as for Trio Challenge content, Enchanter + Enchanter + Cleric is the highest amount of raw power for a straight up fight (if good charm pets are available), but there's a lot of content that requires Feign Death pulls, so a Monk (or perhaps Necro/SK can work sometimes) is required for those.

If any Trio content exists where a Warrior might be needed, then it's going to be something where there are no good charm pets available and the target is unable to be slowed. Something like Stanos Herkanor, if he were theoretically killable by a Warrior + Cleric + DPS trio.
