Blessing of Sanctuary makes sense as a pre-requisite to Holy Shield: you have to learn the blessing of hurt-things-by-blocking before you can learn the super-concentrated-hurt-things-by-blocking skill. Also, last I checked, they stack and are incredibly useful together for AoE tanking.

Deflection makes a lot of sense on the Retribution tree because that tree is all about using a big, slow two-hander (same deal with warriors getting Deflection in the Arms tree); one of the main benefits of parry is the hasted counter-attack, which mainly benefits big and slow weapons. Remember, sixty-nine levels of the game are solo-able, but only one requires a group; group content is the only time a Retadin will not be able to make use of parry-hastened counter-attacks.

A good example of counter-intuitive pre-requisites would be Repentance being required for Fanatacism.
