For example, Hans and Frans's Suplex mechanic deals to each tank Physical damage equal to the maximum health of the other tank. The tank swap debuff increases Physical damage by 40% per stack, and the boss gets a stacking buff of 10% more damage done per stack as the fight progresses. If you're co-tanking with a Druid that has a bunch of Ursoc stacks and is at like 550k HP, near the end of the fight even if you can keep yourself to a single debuff stack you're still going to get Suplexed for about 1.2m, have fun not dying to that without Mastery stacking. If you have two stacks of the debuff (not sure if you can limit yourself to just ever having one) it's 1.5m damage.
