I'm with you on the solo ability of a cleric and your conclusion that a barb shaman can do anything a troll can. But I disgree with the implication that a troll shaman isn't functionally superior to a barb one. Just because they can both solo the same things in theory doesn't mean troll regen isn't stupidly good or that a 20% exp penalty matters hardly at all (especially when barbs also have a 5% penalty).
Not superior but perhaps somewhat better mostly after lvl 51, prior to getting Torpor. Then the difference is very small again given both get the spell eventually from a drop or just buy it from someone.
Barb will have easier leveling due to better faction as well, not just lesser xp penalty. Those Splitpaw scroll quests in Qeynos were stupid easy xp 25-35, and only barb can do them for example.
