Guess I'll take a look the next I'm playing cause I didn't even realize that was a thing. I usually just pick a shield that I think looks good and I've never run into that problem lol.

I rarely use shields, but I do pay attention to their stats because they can be useful, like using a high magic defence shield while exploring discount Hogwarts and stuff, mostly been running around with the jellyfish shield on my back though, looks cool.

Yeah, less than 100 Physical shields have been a thing in Dark Souls since 1. Usually there's supposed to be a trade off of like better magical defense, lighter weight, or a special attribute. I'm still early in Elden Ring and I'm using a 85 Physical Medium Shield with No Skill on it.
