This is pointless, unless Bulwark was guaranteed damage reduction, it's a terrible skill, RNG is this game is pretty bad if you do any crafting/ gathering you'll know. the biggest issue is crits also which blocking does not currently mitigate. So some form of bulwark would be pointless in all instances in trying to offset sentinels 3minute cooldown.

There's nothing wrong with some degree of "homogenisation" ooohhh big scary word, so what if some things are similar, tanks are the most balanced they have ever been, and if having some homogenisation means all tanks are taken and not a HW situation with PLD, or SB for DRK, then it's a worthwhile "sacrifice".
