mm well perhaps we must need to have an agreement in many points but maybe you need first to check the other games, I also noticed another problem with the category "shielded units" in Age of Empires II for example there exist a infantry called militia that doesn´t wear a shield but it upgrades into a units called swordsman that seems to carry a shield an then to the man- at-arms, then the man- at- arms evolve again into a unit that does not seem to carry a shield called Two handed swordsman. so in this case and many others in the other games could be even more confusing.

well you are right I almost forgot the tomahawk and the other units that throw some sort of weapon in AoE III. perhaps this category is more helpful than I think, but perhaps is better to call them " throwing eapopn units"
