I've tanked BC heroics and I've tanked LK heroics and you are right, there is no comparison....LK heroics blow the doors off of BC heroics!!
In BC there was so much mandatory CC for the trash (combined with the fact that if someone broke a trap or sheep it very often could lead to a wipe) that runs took FOREVER!!! How many people remember Botannica/SLabs runs that took close to 2 hours when PuGed? Badge gear cost so much that it took FOREVER to gear up properly! Now while I'm not particularly in love with the "overgeared and AOE zerg" attitude that turns heroics into 12-15 minute jaunts, I'll take it ANY DAY over the hell that was BC heroics. You want a challenging heroic? Run HHOR everyday. Not all of us have 1.5 - 2 hours to dedicate to running a single frigging dungeon.
And to suggest that BC even stands in the shadow of LK lore-wise is just a silly thing to say. There were no epic questlines like Battle for the Undercity. No epic cutscenes like Wrathgate. Arthas is a much bigger figure, too, in terms of importance to lore. BC was just a grind through depressing geography (with the exception of Nagrand) that had very little to connect the zones lore-wise. Totally the opposite of what the lore in LK is.
