It would obviously depend on how well they can hold threat.

My red flags in a tank

  1. low base HP (maybe not always but see #2)

  2. can't mitigate damage well

  3. can't hold threat

  4. no AoE threat/taunt

  5. no "oh shit" buttons

  6. no stuns

  7. gear below the threshold of the content

Those are my take it or leave its before I even invite them to the raid

I just look for stone cold chillers.

Metal Max Xeno (might be the Reborn re-release).

is holding threat the same as keeping aggro?

Yep. A clearer way to say that would be saying that you build threat to hold aggro. But any combination works.
