I'll be honest, Paladin's hotbars set up properly ain't all that bloated, tbh I think DRK is overall the worst tank for button bloat as you tend to use a lot more actions in a shorter amount of time, while Paladin's rotation is more paced out, that it doesn't feel so bloated to me personally.

Making use of 3 hotbars with mmo mouse using shift and ctrl as modifiers, can comfortably play without any issues of bloat.
But if they need to cull abilities, shield bash and cover are the 2 least used actions on Paladin so, those can be cut, if there is any skill reduction to happen.
Just because Dark Knight is worse, doesn't mean Paladin isn't bloated. With an MMO mouse, I comfortably bind about 26 abilities without having to move my hand, and I don't like using Ctrl as I find it awkward to press as it's just out of reach of my little finger.

Culling Shield Bash and Cover really won't free up any space for me since I don't even have them bound to a hotkey and just click them since they're used practically never.

People may complain about the jobs being too easy, but I find Summoner and Machinist to be in a good place in terms number of keybinds required. There are other ways to make jobs more complex than simply adding additional buttons to press.
