Job Titles Not Class Renaming

Okay, so your definition of a Paladin is any dude who can wield a shield and wear armor? Instead of the more common traditional definition which was a holy warrior. Also, how would defender/paladin even come close to a dagger-wielding class?

My point is that Gladiator is too vague for a 'tanking' class to me. The term can be used way too broadly, and Paladin is more core to the idea of a protector in Final Fantasy.

If we actually are waiting to see something like Paladin in an advanced class in a broader picture, then I can withhold my comment. But in the available classes we have right now, that is simply my opinion.

This is true, however being that there are only 6 starting classes, for any group xp until they release new classes, Gladiator is the most logical tank.

That still doesn't change the fact it doesn't have to be. Could be considered a thief since they also wield daggers. Also, shield is a separate class entirely and is referred to as "Sentinel", which sounds like a good enough class name for a "tank" to me, unless your opinion is otherwise, then there's just simply no satisfying you.
