I disagree* (Gaming)

*Partially.

I think lumping the Bubble Shield in with Armour Lock does the former a massive disservice.

One of these makes you an immobile brick on-demand, the other provides a one-time chance to dynamically alter the environment you're fighting in.

I don't expect you to agree with me that it was a welcome addition to the sandbox, you've already made it clear you feel otherwise, but c'mon; Armour Lock as a concept was so much worse.

Armor Lock was, on balance, worse than Bubble Shield for the simple fact that it was far more ubiquitous. Bubble Shield at least pretended to be a power weapon, although in practice it was more common than it should have been. And on maps that also spawned Regen you had a "Press X to not die" twofer.
