DKs and the tank shortage

Just putting the question out there. In TBC there was a tank shortage. Blizzard adds death knights in WotLK, adding another melee/tank hybrid like warriors. That's three tank classes now up to four, and and the addition of dual specs so people can spec for tanking while still having the dps spec they want for soloing and pvp.

So why is there still a shortage of tanks?

There are still a lot of dps classes that people play and they always need a tank to run instances. Add to the fact/idea/random thought that a lot of people don't want to put up with the hassles/responsibility/focus of tanking and it takes awhile to find one from time to time.
