Does anyone know why the shield was removed when in defensive stance?

as my title says, I really enjoy the idea of having a sword and shield and love that animation but I’ve noticed it’s been removed, any ideas why?

Since Shadowland you can now wear a real shield in all specs.

So you can now as arm warrior switching your weapon to use defensive like shield block ect.

Blizzard expect player if they want more defensive, they can make a macro to switch weapon if they need to play more defensively or more offensively.

It does not matter in PvE but in PvP against specialisation that deal a lot of physical damage, seeing a shield or not is a big information to do not miss

But they haven’t removed that annoying purple shield floating around you constantly right?
The one thing keeping me from from using defensive stance x)
