Shield Swipe's current iteration is actually my problem with OGCDs in general. "If it lit, hit." Shield Swipe in its old iteration was a stopgap, used primarily to manage TP with minimal potency loss (As it was less than the average). The pacify was useful, but like most other interesting effects, most things were and are immune to it.

That is why I used Haymaker. Shield Swipe just became the ability i want to see less of. Blind spam whenever it's up. I can't say "Well it should have been like Shield Swipe" because even Shield Swipe decided it didn't want to be Shield Swipe. Haymaker at least had the grace to bow out completely.

And it's both. We need action diversity, and with those diverse actions, they should hold up to one another. Though thinking on it, you technically could put Scourge back in and it'd be "unique" if only because all the others got removed too, but I don't find anything all that interesting about hitting a DoT every 30 seconds.
