If knights had defensive, would there be any reason to have warriors?

To be honest, if bash generated aggro like a stun, holding aggro would be totally trivial and there would be even less reason to play a knight.

I imagine if shield bash aggro wasn't bugged in classic, the difference in the meta would have had a great impact on the development of character balance in the expansions - for example if warriors could hold aggro easily with a shield they wouldn't have needed to be given defensive in Kunark to justify their use as a tank over knights.

The entire game could have unfolded differently.
