Shadow priest fails to pull aggro as chances are he will not catch up to the main tanks threat or be in melee range. This is just an example of how even if a shadow priest's VT and VE are affecting all and not reduced by salvation and talents he can still not pull aggro in the worst case scenario on gruul as it is almost impossible for all of the party to use 100% of the healing, almost.

As mentioned, Gruul is hardly aggro sensitive. But using your numbers, the Priest will have exceeded 110% of the MT's threat after 2 minutes. While this is fine from range, an unlucky Ground Slam could bring him/her to melee range, at which point they're dead.
