That idea has been suggested before, many times, by people who seem to have forgotten why the armor system was added to the game at all.
It's not the same, though.
Having a fixed 45% chance to avoid getting knocked down due to bodybuilding, is not the same as having a gradient, that is atleast partially under your control. The game has many armor restoring spells to use at your disposal to minimize the chances of getting CC'ed, if such a system is in place.
Also, may I suggest that you elaborate on your points instead of coming off as passive-aggressive? It makes it a lot easier to have a meaningful discussion - and if that is not your goal, why bother posting at all?
