Well regarding the stance, Imo it's simply poor design.

They said there would be changes with stance.
I really hope they remove, at the very least, the -20% dmg done and make all stance ogcd. The loss of benefit from the DPS stance itself is more than enough of a penalty (Felcleave +5% crit, SO aa bonus, blood weapon)

I also hope stance become much more than what they are now, an enmity generation tool you turn on for 3 gcd.
We shall see. In a way, PLD is kinda like 3.0 WAR but less broken. It can fulfill both the MT and OT slots, it just likes OT more due to the loss of damage from shield oath.

As for identity, it is a bit weird, but I don't think we can use that as an argument as the roles shift depending on balance, and PLD can fit in either MT or OT based on the way it is portrayed.
