All good points.
It’s not hard for most to get mid 100’s CHA which is very functional for solo or group work. A kobold jester helm is 30 and a crude stein is 15. Sham’s and ench’s can buff about 50 and the Luminary sword as mentioned is a lower level sham spell (like 28 points?). Dragonskin mask is high AC and CHA; not bad for general tanking. Two Overseer Signets are 16 CHA (good for extra MR sometimes too). Plus all the ragefire armor is full of CHA.
Solo or farming I use DW arms; swapping for a click is easier than meming a spell and no sit aggro. If pulling or helping pull I use calm or pacify. Usually you have clarity so it’s not a huge cost and the cast is quicker.
When solo just assume lull might fail, then every landed one is a blessing. In a group set expectations and stay chatty, hope for the best. With a team awake at the wheel worst case 5 mobs rush the tank who has LoH up. That’s way less chaotic than a swarm at an ench or cleric. It’s not a clean pull but controlled chaos is kinda fun
