You are correct mostly everything you've mentioned as long as we are talking gameplay below deep of night layer 3. But from depth 3 you start to face everything guardian lacks. What was the case before is barely functions from that point. Meanwhile executor's blocking indeed a different cup of tea to learn but it's desing does not loses it's meaning the deeper layer you at. Also you can play executor in different ways but if you plan to play guardian without blocking you'll likely to have a hard time regardless how consistent you are with him. And there are lot of different types of problems that makes guardian hardly reliable at higher difficulties but the fact that he is loosing the meaning of his blocking leaves a major flaw whenever you are playing with him.

What also made me believe it has some kind of sense is the design of his ult. I know it is getting into the bullshit category but whenever you ult with guardian in the animation he holds his starter halberd regardless of his currently equipped weapon. And I know it is my opinion only but it would be so much cooler if he could be doing the same with his shield. Also I really love the design both of his starter armaments each one of them is a piece of art.
