Light armor and a shield makes perfect sense...

Swashbucklers used buckler shields with little or no armor. How about Agent Coulson with his force field shield and no armor in the latest season of Agents of Shield? Captain America's armor would probably also count as light armor. The Gungan's in Star Wars had energy tower shields and no armor. The Covenant from Halo. And on, and on.

Light armour+shields is a great combo, it allows for a quick defence without limiting your joints or weighing you down too much. A great thing they should add would be an energy shield (buckler or targe) that can be activated or disabled as a swift action for quick characters. That concept might even work for tower shields so the quick character as a quickly deployed mobile cover.
