More Paladin-centered shields needed to close the gap with Aegis & Ochain

[Alpheus]

I wonder, would you give up the Legendary shields (a nerf) if it meant they strengthened PLD as a DD or otherwise brought it up to par such that it can get away from such a binary function of usefulness?

Edit: I ask this because if SE were serious about changing PLD to have a wider degree of usefulness I see them pointing to those two shields (and to a lesser extent Burtgang) as reasons why PLD cant have (more) nice things. I also ask because its a good point (the whole binary usefulness of PLD) and I am simply curious what other good points can be brought up if it was discussed further.
