I wish I had a 24 warrior to prove you wrong, but I will say I've recently leveled a warrior up to the 30-40 range, and even in the 20-40 range, level matters a ton when you're talking toe-to-toe melee with a mob, be it a warrior or a charmed pet. If you think a 24 warrior fighting a 22 mob vs a 16 mob is going to lose even remotely as much health or do the same dps, you're absolutely smoking crack. And similarly if you fight a 28 pet against a 28 mob, it's going to take serious damage and not put out nearly the dps it would if it were fighting a level 20 mob.

This is very correct. My solo warrior guide revolves around optimizing your leveling around hunting in areas with mobs who are always at the lowest end of your blue-con range.
The difference between fighting a mob 2 levels below you and a mob 5 levels below you at 24 is very noticeable. It might not be when you're jacked out in gear, but its huge. Levels are by far the most noticeable difference maker when warrior soloing.
Camping the Chasm Minotaur in Gorge is a great example, the difference in kill speed / damage taken at level 23/24 is very different than when you're 25/26 now that its at the bottom of your con range. Not to mention when you're 23 or so, the difference between the minotaur being level 19 or 20 when it spawns massively changes how that fight goes.
