Passage of Arms, this one doesn't really end up being very useful most of the time.The range is funky, you want the tank to face the boss towards the party? The stopping of attacks makes it instantly undesirable in savage due to strict dps checks so when is it supposed to be used? Every attack is already survivable in everything except maybe o4s. And it has this weird delay like Collective Unconsious where it takes like a server tic for the defense to take effect on the party.

Divine Veil : Really good but the CD is pretty long. I'd wonder if it could be reduced a tad to 90. Or to take it a step further, make it cost 100 oath gauge and only be available in Shield Oath so there is weight in swapping stances unique to PLD.

ShO/SwO: This is more of a personal complaint but maybe they could take one off the GCD, preferably SwO like DRK's darkside. And maybe make more risk and reward, such as Shield has a passive 10~20% block rate while Sword has a reduced block rate by 10~20%.

Excellent post you've summarized the issues well, our CDs are the longest of all tanks which would make sense if the abilities were strong enough to warrant this but Tempered Will and Bulwark aren't really worth there current cool down and Passage of arms looks really cool but half the time I use it the party doesn't get the benefit because it takes so long for the buff to affect them.

Divine Veil is the only utility I've found really useful.
