Per Shield Brace: You can use a two-handed weapon sized appropriately for you from the polearm or spears weapon group while also using a light, heavy, or tower shield with which you are proficient. The shield’s armor check penalty (if any) applies to attacks made with the weapon.
Would using a two-handed weapon this way eliminate the ability to "drop" a hand off the weapon for spell casting/lay on hands/drinking a potion/ other?
Might be a RAI vs RAW situation.
