What jumps at me is you save about 1.5khp over a thousand hits with the shield past the cap, which is sub 4%? Seems like you'd have better mitigation with quicker kills using a 2hander.
Only real reason I see using a shield is maybe for raid encounters where a max hit round could 1shot the MT. It would lower the chances of getting such a round but I'm a non raider, wouldn't surprise me if MTs didn't bother at this point.

Agreed. In later xpacs, like GoD and OoW: Sword and Board was the preferred warrior MT setup. But that was with shields that had like 100AC and also Shield Block AA which allowed warriors to completely block incoming attacks with shield equipped.
