I prefer lances for Knight 2H as well, but can go with the others as well. If there is a good "lance" in a set of weapons I will always choose the lance.
You do realise that a lance is supposed to be used while on a mount ? And attempting to use a mount in combat is just not an option.

Swords, maces, flails, etc are all perfectly valid knightly weapons.

Also the big two handed swords, great axes, etc.

Some variety is nice, having options is nice.

Being stuck with 1 or 2 weapons choices is not nice.

Knights are in no way unique here.

Kights get 1 1 hander and 1 2 hander... currently slasher and piercer, (but have other sub-optimal choices)

Warriors get 1 slasher (but have other less ideal options)

Rangers get 1 bow

Priests get 1 blunt (but have other less ideal options)

if we keep making more and more single class, or even overly tight class groupings, then the drop tables get more and more dilute.

And I phrased the knight alt choices as sub optimal because yes it really is not a good option to take the "normal" for knights.
