@JeremyECrawford does a shield count as wearing armor? barbarian unarmored defense and defensive fighting style?

The barbarian's Unarmored Defense addresses whether you can use a shield with it (PH, 48). #DnD https://t.co/s5zt2AyfmU

The Defense fighting style is intended to work with a suit of armor you wear, not with a shield alone. #DnD https://t.co/s5zt2AyfmU
