It already does, after that set was buffed. I never bothered farming it, since I started progressing vMoL right after Morrowind, and by that time Torug's was already stronger and more reliable.
I feel like they've got someone on staff whose sole job is to make sure no changes can be pushed as straight buffs.
Make a feature work properly? We can't have that, it'll give them an advantage next patch. Better make it worse at the same time.

If used with infused crusher, Torugs reduces enemy resistances by 633 (2108 to 2741). Alkosh reduces enemy resistances by 3010, so unless uptime is terrible Alkosh is still way better.
Alkosh with infused crusher results in 5118 reduction in resistances, but takes a skilled tank to keep good uptime on both.
The scenario where they are similar is if the tank does not use Crusher with Alkosh, but does use infused crusher with Torugs, so it is then 3010 vs 2741. But most of that 2741 is not credited to Torugs.

Since they fixed the minor slayer buff on alkosh, it can also be iable for a stmdd to run it
But only if the tank job is hard in certain fights like vHRC or when the tank isnt at the boss like in vAA.
