Stance comparisons of knights? (/s 2 and 9)

So I'm curious if there's actual numbers that are tied with the knight stances that can be compared. In particular, I'm wondering what the benefit of /s 9 is over using /s 2 (and whether or not the stamina usage actually warrants it). The descripions are almost identical for their effects. One is greater damage and loss of mitigation (plus stamina drain) and the other is greater attack speed (therefore more damage) and loss of mitigation with no stamina drain.

I'm also curious as to why /s 9 sacrifices mitigation since you already lose use of a shield with a 2 hander (in addition to stamina being drained by the stance). It just seems like that stance is not better *enough* than /s 2 to warrant using it.

If anyone has soem numbers on these and could share, it would be greatly appreciated. :)

I to have wondered this, and the crit increase stance too. Not having stamina for s4 is a big deal, so I usually don't use dose stances unless 100% not tanking.
