I mostly tank using this method not because I hate/avoid diseases but because:
1- Im undergeared so trying to maintain aggro with 4 guys in icc25 gear isnt exactly the easiest thing.
2- It saves time, instead of waiting to pop diseases and then spreading I can just use Blood Boil twice, then Death Strike twice, and keep aggro while at the same time I keep myself alive.

However once i have established a 'good' aggro with mobs I try to spread at least Frost Plague, due to the attack speed reduction and higher damage of Blood boil. So most tanks out there not using diseases just because they dont like them, but instead just find it more 'practical'.
