I am saying that a shield is disqualified as an Accessory because it contravenes the text.

The text says minor, non-combat benefits.

A shield violates both parameters where even one would be enough to rule it out.

Yes, and that's exactly what Reverend said. He said neither Accessory was valid, while both powers were valid.

So I'm still not sure what's going on.

Which is exactly what you seemed to be disagreeing with. The Good Reverend was saying that Accessory: Knife and Accessory: Shield were illegal, while Cutting Attack and Defense Bonus+DR were legal. I think you have misparsed his statement.
