Shield Build

So, I tested something today and got really confused.
My mitigation is 64, full passives, with Guarded Stance.
Remove shield, it drops to 54.
Reequip shield for 64 and then remove Guarded Stance, it remains 64.
What's going on here?
Why is it not showing proper stats?
Shouldn't it be in the 80s or something?
Or if 64 is what it's supposed to be, shouldn't it drop by 30 since I removed the shield? All perks require shield.
I'm gonna use Footmans to maximize mitigation, and reduce block costs as much as I can through exchange and traits.
Plan: zero cost high mitigation with thews set as damage, dealing 1.2k as of now back to attackers I block. Going that will increase as my health goes up, since its based off max health.
Also planning Spell Wall to annihilate ranged attackers, Guarded Stance alone dishes it out hard to them, most effective against fearkyns. They keep fearing themselves. Currently at Shield Wall 3.7.
I know they reduced possible mitigation, but it woulda been fun to try this back when we could get mitigation 100%+, and laugh at enemies who refuse to stop hurting themselves.
I play a Khajiit Nightblade. Not a mitigation class, but it can still do fine. Better for stealth anyways.
