this is true.. but even with it evasion builds are under performing.

my sentiments.

It is probability. If you are fine with uncertainty and believe expected value like what I am, you will be fine with evasion and dodge. Those thing may not be good in HC as the ultimate goal of HC is not to die. Such an uncertainty may kill you (if there is a passive "if you are in maximum health and maximum ES, a single shot can only reduce you ES to 0 and HP to 1 no matter how painful it is", evasion and dodge with no armour can work in HC). But in SC,it may work great. In this game, armour work well for small attacks but it can't help much when you are facing a huge attack (referring to wiki and you can know why). Keep in mind, huge attacks doesn't mean that their accuracy is high also. In such a case, armour may only provide you 10% damage reduction (it may be 60% in you panel) toward a huge attack while evasion and dodge can give you more (e.g. 50%), especially for those extreme attacks which can on shot you even if you have 8000 armour. Therefore evasion and dodge can work better than armour in term of expected value as long as you can afford death. And I need to repeat it again, it only works if you believe expected value.
