Many of the previously Spelldamage only spells (Consecration, Exorcism, etc) now also scale with AP; hence, Strength.

The 51-point Protection talent scales with weapon damage, hence Attack Power, hence Strength.

I also read (though I never no idea where I read it) that the Strength to Block Value ratio has increased, so it should help that too.

The reasons for this appear to be two-fold. One, if Tanking Plate drops, it will apply to all three Plate classes (unless has any Block on it as Deathknights won't want it). Two, if push comes to shove, a Retribution Paladin should be able to tank adequately (not brilliantly).
