You have no evidence to support this. Yes, I just brought up a couple exceptions. That's because it would literally take days of research to present dozens of examples of this not being true. I don't have to do that, though, because you didn't present any reason to believe it IS true. In fact, you thought it was never true, and challenged people to show even one counterexample, probably because you don't have any idea what the fact of the matter is.
Let's do Death Knight. The 2pt12 bonus for Death Knights was worse than either previous tier 11 bonus for both DPS and tank. The 4pt12 bonus for tank might be more total EHP but is almost undoubtedly worse than the longer icebound fortitude in T11. The T15 bonuses for tank are both absolutely awful compared to either of the previous tier bonuses. The T16 bonuses have been edited from live on WoWhead's database but the 4pc bonus, where DRW activates 4 runes, is arguably worse than the T14 bonuses also.
I can go on.
