Mark The Devourer

I recently watched a video where a fellow by the name of Sorbet Cafe beat Terraria with 0 defense. It was really cool! But it made me wonder how much I rely on defense. So I want to ask all of you guys. Do you believe that dodging is more important than pure defense? If so, do you believe that high defense builds could become a "crutch"?
If you are able to doge everything than you wouldn't need high defense at all, so I assume it would force you to get better at the game. Defense can be extremely satisfying to increase, but requires less technical skill than dodging I reckon. Still, a melee tank build has been my favorite way to play Terraria ever, so perhaps I'm just worrying too much/ being to hard on myself.
