I'd say that Divine Sacrifice is optional for a main tank. It is useful at times, and suicidal at others.

Effects that reduce damage done to you by a %, won't reduce damage dealt by Divine Sacrifice (for example, the half-bubble). And the times you'd want to use it most, are the times when you really shouldn't (for example, AoE damage). Apart from that, in many cases Hand of Sacrifice works just as well.

I'd say, that if you want to free up a few talent points, consider not using that spell (the way you do in your current spec).

2/2 imp judge isnt needed, cd's clash. stoicism isnt needed, get atleast 1 spiritual attunment so you dont go oom. else everything seems decent

This is most likely the build I will use in 3.2
