Yeah, a defense move, a shield, a heal, a prayer. They are definitely holy. However, the ones that OP is referring to did not use any of those and rather used that holy power for magic sword attacks. Really, the paladins in FFTA 1 and 2 have little in common with the holy knight class aside from gear.

I don't see why classes can't share a theme or a common weapon. In fact, it places huge limits on what classes you can have when only 1 class can use a one handed sword, 1 class can use a gun, etc.
