Counter swapping is not exclusive to Tank role.
Tanks are easier to counter pick because there are only one of them. It's much harder to counter a role like DPS when there's a second hero in that role to account for. in the same vein, when someone counter picks your hero as Supp/DPS, you're not instantly made useless because you have a partner in your role to pick up your slack (hopefully). Tanks suck that way because nobody can really do the job of tanks besides the tanks.
