Here is the thing about what you wrote: you'd be substantially more effective doing those things as a Shadowknight. Farming? SK wins easily: they can travel in dungeons, snare runners, and split camps. Grouping? I give the edge to the SK with their snap aggro unless the warrior is really well geared. Raiding? SKs are simply better for anything that's slowable. The rest of the raid can disable their brains and fire at will because the mob is not leaving the SK, period. The only encounters where a warrior has an unquestioned edge are the Spiroc Lord, the Bee Queen, and to some extent the King/Queen in Chardok (all unslowable).

Now for sure that doesn't mean that a warrior can't do those things, but the whole purpose of a guide is to provide the min-max perspective. And the min-max pespective on warriors is that you need the gear. Speaking for myself I want my toons to kick ass, and I just didn't feel my warrior was doing that until I got the toys.
Fair enough I think your guide fulfils those objectives very well. I didnt realize it was purely a min/max guide. One other thing Im confused about is in the dps/hate per sec table: how does the dps for the scd/foz combo = 64 yet threat per sec only = 50 when damage = 1 hate?
