Why would you think a 2 hander is more defensive then dual wield? Those big massive swords are slower and less wieldly. Dual wield should be more defensive in nature then a 2h. You have 2 quick blades to help parry and I would think that dodging would be easier with smaller blades that don't over extend your center of gravity. A shield should be more defensive then either of course.
Personally I think it would be cool if the warrior in defensive stance would use his dual wield defensively. Sacraficing opertunities to attack for chances to parry. Course you have to be carefull not to make him a superior tank to the others for balance reasons. If maybe his increased chance to parry equiled his chance to block with a shield then balance could be maintained. Warriors might not opt for the shield as often since it only gives them extra armor and potentially more stat bonuses then their off hand sword. Their dps improvment over the other tanks would be better in defensive stance which is fine by me.
