Hmm I'm not sure if those classes are getting bound to their weapon type so drastically. They could technically invent a large variety of weapon types just for the "Swords". Scimitars, Katana's, Great Katana's, Broadswoards, Falchion's, Shortswords, just to name a few. These can wield different classes. THM and CON can both use 1-handed and 2-handed weapons which are somewhat identical.
Ah well I'm confused about the whole system anyway. I just hope SE is not going to do a every class can just equip some affinty+ trait to fully use every skill with full effect.
That would mean there won't be much versaitlity anymore. Yoshiiiiiii where's your lettttttteeeerrrrrr we want some clarifications =D
