While i don't think max is a healthy thing to look at (especially on fights with irrelevant adds it's often just heavy padding on it because that's the only way your damage is really gonna go up a lot), 75th percentile is really terrible level of play rotation wise, 90-95th should be healthier to look at, and there you can see the only tank that's above monk is really dh, and considering how bad they are defensively i wouldn't consider that makes monk mediocre .
Talking about Goroth the current rank 1 for brewmaster is terribly low, i'm not going for parses, i was running away as soon as i got my debuff, hiding behind pillar 3-5 seconds beforehand and was doing 715k on a 10% wipe, and i got a lot of upgrades since then, so i think 750k is really easily doable, probably even close to 800k with a really good gear and rng.
But yeah to close the argument if you think monks are mediocre at anything this tier you're probably mediocre yourself...
