I've always considered data isolation as the #1 priority when it comes to tenancy. Does that mean that the sharding should defacto be done on the tenant ID?

You shard for load distribution. If data isolation is #1 priority, use separate tables, schemas, database instances.

Separate disks, separate machines hell even separate networks, proper data isolation can be super expensive to do right.
