In response to your question regarding Kanan’s pauldron armor, I believe it might have to do with his combat form. I looked into it, and as the grand inquisitor pointed out, Kanan favors form III.

I believe this is from the Jedi Path book: Form III stances presented a minimal target to assailants, not only limited the opponent's avenues of attack, but reduced the area the Soresu practitioner had to defend with lightsaber parries and blocks.

So he essentially is making himself smaller, likely keeping his left side back, with his saver and right shoulder front, and in a vulnerable position, which would explain the need to keep is right side covered as well incase he can’t deflect everything.
